Rice University Tour

Chris Blackwell, our Director of College Counseling, helped make the most of a busy weekend for our Upper School students. After the football team traveled to Houston to play John Cooper School in football on Friday night, several students were able to attend a tour at Rice University on Saturday specifically arranged for them. The Rice representative was very informative, and Davis Jackson ‘20 met the group at the end to convey how well his Cistercian experience had prepared him for Rice.
