Prepping for their futures

0

WILMINGTON — Wilmington High School recently opened its doors and invited area students to attend the annual Clinton County College Fair. Representatives from more than 60 colleges, universities and the military were on hand to speak one-on-one with students interested in learning more about their options as they begin the college application process.

Students from Clinton-Massie, East Clinton and Wilmington high schools mingled throughout the fair chatting with school representatives, filling out informational cards and gathering materials that will assist them in making decisions about the future. For many students, the day’s event marked the beginning of their research into higher education and military service.

Counselors throughout the county will continue to work with college- and military-bound seniors over the next several months to offer insight and guidance as students narrow down and prioritize their options.
