All seniors should have received this flyer in the mail over Spring Break, just for clarification here’s some additional info:
Ivy Tech will be here on April 13 during SRT to do a presentation on their ASAP program. It’s a local program that will earn you an associate degrees in one year- so this time next year you will be a junior in college! It is close to home and extremely affordable. It is especially great for those of you who may be nervous about post-secondary education- class sizes are small and you stay with the same group of people for all your classes. Also, there is almost guaranteed scholarship money for bigger state schools upon completion of the program.
Due to Covid restrictions it is imperative that you RSVP to Mrs DeRolf at jderolf@rfcsc.k12.in.us
Even if you’re not sure college is for you this may worth the listen!
