On April 8, 2024, the Oyster River High School’s (ORHS) Gymnasium was filled with over 100 college representatives gathered for the inaugural College Fair organized by the school's counseling team. With a commitment to guiding students towards their future educational endeavors, this event proved to be a monumental success.
The fair provided an invaluable opportunity for students to explore diverse career pathways and higher education options, interact with representatives from various colleges, and delve deeper into their aspirations.
From prestigious universities to specialized institutions and military organizations, the fair boasted a diverse array of participants, ensuring that every student found a potential fit for their unique interests and goals.
Reflecting on the significance of the event, Director of Counseling Shannon Caron said, "Today marks a pivotal moment for us. This first College Fair isn't just about exploring colleges; it's about empowering our students to shape their futures with intention and confidence."
In addition to organizing a College Fair, the ORHS counseling team is also committed to creating personalized programs to encourage high levels of engagement and offer broad dynamic opportunities for Oyster River students about to enter an evolving and competitive workplace.
Oyster River High School students received the opportunity to connect with over 100 college representatives.
The ORHS Counseling team plans to offer a College Fair again next year.
