South Side High School hosted a college and post-secondary school fair on September 18.

Admissions counselors from more than 85 colleges, trade schools and vocational programs were in attendance to speak with students and their families to help them learn more about their choices.

Before the event, school counselors gave a presentation on the college application process to help inform and prepare seniors for what they can expect in the months ahead.

“Every student has a unique path to follow, both through high school and after. We are happy to provide an opportunity for our students to explore different possibilities and options for their life after graduating South Side,” Kelly Ramsey, the director of school counseling, said. “It’s exciting to be a part of this important process with our students and families.”

South Side High School Principal Patrick Walsh said that one of the highest priorities is ensuring that students and families feel supported in the transition between high school and post-secondary.

“The Post-Secondary Fair is one step in that process,” Walsh said. “I would encourage all of our families to avail themselves of the various opportunities and resources offered by the Counseling Center as our students experience this exciting time in their lives.”
