Welcome to Aristotle Circle’s Blog! We hope you’ll stick around.
Higher education, admissions, and K-12 learning spaces are filled with a lot of noise. No matter where you go online, you’ll find different information, and we’ll be honest with you: a lot of it is bunk, and students are not equipped to separate the wheat from the chaff. Worse still, schools are wildly understaffed, and as a result, students don’t get the guidance they desperately need. Nearly 64% of 4th, 75% of 8th, and 75% of 12th graders are not reading at a proficient level. On average, high school counselors are responsible for over 400 students, and in some states that ratio hops over 600:1.
Public school counselors speak with their students about college planning for less than 45 minutes per student.
This is not enough. We’re here to fill the void.
Aristotle Circle has made it a mission to demystify not only the college admissions process, but also standardized testing, private and independent school applications, and more for students and parents alike.
