Reach High Scholars

We are so lucky to have the Reach High Scholars organization to help our students with their future plans.  In addition to a club that provides time for them to ask questions and assistance with college resumes and applications, this group helps students with college visits, searching out scholarship opportunities, and provides much needed support.  The process for applying to schools beyond high school can be daunting.  Students may not have anyone who understands how it "works" and this is an opportunity to get advice and practical help.  Our students make decisions throughout their high school years that may affect their goals and future plans.  With the Reach High Scholars, students do not need to do this alone.

Their website: http://reachhighscholars.org offers an amazing amount of information about everything from "tips to preparing for college" to "SAT scores" to "acceptance rates" for many colleges.  If you thought college is not affordable or would not work for your child, this site may help lead the way.  Check out the varied "tabs" along the top of the home page for informative, meaningful material.

I would encourage everyone to access this web site and have your children look at it, too.  There are many, many avenues to our students' futures and this could be one of the most important web sites you visit.
