College Prep & Placement Firm Expands to Serve Darien Families

First Choice College Placement is pleased to announce it will be opening a new classroom facility in Norwalk to serve students in Darien and the surrounding communities. It will be located at 430 Main Avenue near the junction of Route 7 and the Merritt Parkway in Norwalk. The new facility is the result of a strategic partnership with All-Star Driver, Connecticut’s leader in driver’s education.

First Choice College Placement has been providing SAT/ACT test preparation classes in Milford since 1999, and beginning in August, those same test preparation classes will be available at three All-Star Driver classroom facilities in Connecticut, the one in Norwalk, as well as Monroe and Wallingford.

“Our two businesses serve the same groups of high school juniors and seniors, so it just made sense to utilize these state-of-the-art classrooms when they are available,” said James Maroney, Director of First Choice College Placement LLC. “We employ a variety of technologies to assist students in the classroom, such as white boards, iPads, and recording of each session for review at the student’s convenience. In addition, all classroom sessions are taught by our highly qualified tutors who are graduates of top universities.”

“You were a part of these kids’ lives at an important time,” Goldman said. “And based on my belief in the “Butterfly Effect” they might not be doing what they are doing, and how they are doing it, without you.”
