Discussing your child’s higher education goals is the most effective way to keep them on the path to success. Your sixth grade student may show career interests or a constant desire to learn — Zenith Prep Academy can help your child think about college and the road to getting into an Ivy League or a top university.
We specialize in pre-college planning for young learners, including sixth graders who are at least 11 years old. Enroll your student in our program to help them develop new skills, gain confidence, and consider the next steps for their path to a top university.
What Is the Purpose of a College Preparatory Program for Sixth Graders?
At Zenith Prep Academy, the best time to prepare for college is always now. Our college counseling program for sixth graders is designed to encourage high academic performance as we provide a level of guidance, strategies, resources, and recommendations not seen within the public or private school environments.
Your child gets to work with a dedicated counselor on a four-person team, including a former admissions officer from an Ivy League or Top 25 university, to support your child through the 12th grade. That means your child will get years of personalized one-on-one coaching, enabling them to reach their fullest academic potential.
Types of College Prep Skills We Focus on for Sixth Graders
The three fundamental college prep skills we focus on for sixth graders are below:
- Extracurricular planning: Our counselors address the value and will recommend a personalized list of enrichment classes, programs, activities, and more that align with your child's interests and passions.
- Writing and speaking: Zenith Prep Academy prepares your student to become an outstanding communicator. This skill is useful for asking teachers for help, securing future internships, and seeking out opportunities during middle school and high school.
- Managing time: Your child's counselor will teach positive study habits and time management methods for retention. We drive home the “work smarter, not harder” mentality to help students manage extracurriculars and commitments they have after the dismissal bell rings.
