5 things to focus on during your holiday break

As a high school senior, you're on the brink of new adventures and opportunities. Here are some tips to help you make the most of your senior year during your holiday break:

  1. Develop Your Social Resume: Start building a social resume that showcases your achievements, skills, and interests. Highlight your involvement in clubs, sports, and community service. This will be invaluable as you prepare your sorority recommendation packets and great tool to have ready for sorority recruitment registration in the spring.

  2. Plan Your Senior Photos: Schedule your senior photo session well in advance and aim to have your photos ready by March. These photos not only showcase your personality but are also essential to include in your recommendation packets.

  3. Audit Your Social Media: Take the time to review and update your social media presence. Ensure that your profile reflects the best version of yourself, as sorority girls and potential roommates will want to check you out before they commit.

  4. Improve Conversation Skills: Take advantage of the holiday season to improve your conversation skills. Interact with family and friends during gatherings to practice making small talk with new people and honing your active listening abilities. These skills will be invaluable for social interactions during spring college visits and for sorority recruitment in the fall.

  5. Reconnect with College Friends: If you have friends who have already started college, reach out to them. Learn about their experiences, especially if they are involved in Greek life or other organizations. Their insights can help you make informed decisions about your experience.

By focusing on these areas, you'll be well-prepared for the transitions ahead. Enjoy your senior year and cherish all the wonderful memories you'll create! Wishing you the best of luck! I'm here cheering you on and supporting your journey, my friend!
