Good news for many in the Waterford Class of 2021! Students have heard back from many colleges in the Early Action or Early Decision application round. The reply date for early action at the University of Utah and BYU is January 15. We look forward to the spring when regular decision replies come in, as all Seniors have thoughtful college application lists, and will have good choices come April 1.

If you ask a student to list things they associate with Waterford, there are a few staples that will undoubtedly come up: The uniform. The views from the quad. Reading The Odyssey in Class VIII. And, invariably: the Class IX Insect Project.
