Is his college preparatory program going badly or complicated in any way? Does he need a period of freedom and responsibility under suitable supervision before entering college ? Should he get away from the distractions of home friends and school activities and do some work ? Does he need to gain in maturity and scholarship prior to college work ?

Cascadilla has been meeting these needs. How, and how succesfully, is told in a little folder just printed for us. May we send you a copy ?
