Seniors Visit
Sinclair Community College
Greenville High School...
(Greenville) Thirty-six Greenville High School seniors recently visited
Sinclair Community College in Dayton and the college’s branch campus in
Englewood. The trip was sponsored by Sinclair Community College.
“This was the first time on a college campus for several of the high
school seniors,” said Becky Curtis, GHS guidance counselor. She, along
with GHS guidance counselors Krista Subler and Matt Sutter, and Bridges
to College director Beth Sears, accompanied the students on the trip.
“Many times, community colleges offer the most affordable
post-secondary option for students,” Sears said.
The students learned about many options, including certificate
programs, two-year degrees, and transferring credits to a four-year
university. Throughout the trip, the counselors talked with the
students about different college options.
“College visits like these are an important part of the college
selection process,” Sears said. “A college that feels right for one
student may not feel right for another.”
After visiting the Dayton campus, the students boarded the bus and
visited the Sinclair branch campus in Englewood. There, students
learned that they can go through the college admissions process there
as well as take many of Sinclair’s general education classes.
This is the second college visit that the GHS counselors have taken
students on this fall. Both the GHS counselors and Bridges to College
are trying to make students more aware of their college options, the
college admissions process, and the financial aid process.
