It's open to parents in the Broward County public school system, on Dec. 13, which is a Saturday, from 8:45 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. at Nova High School, 3600 College Ave. in Davie.

This is a well needed conference. The path to college is filled with exciting options and also challenges that did not exist for the previous generation. Our "home" high school was recently changed from Cypress to Western. My 13 year old is looking for different options. We are hoping to win a spot at Nova and she intends to attend Broward College Academy for her junior and senior years. THAT is a very attractive opportunity. I would recommend that parents of AP or "driven" students check it out.

I agree. I have a middle schooler but I'm really glad to know that when we get the point where I have these questions, I won't have to rely on his answers!
