🎓 From High School Seniors to SCC Cougars!
Last week, a group of our incredible seniors took a major step toward their future by visiting St. Charles Community College as part of the Be Ready Program! 🐾
This program is all about smoothing the transition from high school to college life, ensuring our students have the tools, tours, and jitters-out-of-the-way confidence they need to hit the ground running this fall.
We are so proud of these students for taking initiative and getting a head start on their next chapter. The energy was high, the campus looked great, and we can already tell they’re going to make some noise as the newest SCC Cougars! 🐾💻📚
📸 Highlights:
Exploring the SCC campus.
Learning about resources to stay "college-ready."
Connecting with future classmates and faculty.
Join us in congratulating these seniors in the comments below! 👇
