On Monday Semptember 26, the juniors and seniors of Chapin High School gathered to go explore the college fair. At the college fair, the students can find out more about colleges they are interested in and can contemplate other options for college.
There were sixty-six college representatives that conversed with the students about their plans for the future. Students looked at colleges such as College of Charleston, Wofford, Furman University, Winthrop, USC, The Citadel, and Midlands Tech. The Army and the National Guard also came for people interested in the military.
Head guidance counselor Annette Moore said, “It benefits the students that are on the fence on what college to go to. We want to provide as many avenues to college as possible to help the students. We also want to be a resource to them, but it is up to the students to take advantage of it.”
Senior Ryan Moore said, ” My friend Devin Lawrence and I had a splendid afternoon as we were enriched with knowledge concerning various universities and colleges.”
Most of the students found the college fair found the event very helpful and that it helped inform them as to what colleges they were interested in and could apply for.
