Fall College Trip

CCS Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors,

Dear Parents,

            We are planning a fall college visit trip to Messiah College and Lancaster Bible College on Friday, October 7th.  We are planning to leave the Center at 9:00 a.m. Friday morning.  We will take a tour of the campus, talk with  an admissions counselor about the different programs and opportunities at the school.  We will then go to Lancaster Bible College. Students should bring money along for dinner. It will be a great experience for students. We will leave in time to return to the Center by early evening. I am assuming we will arrive at North campus around 9 PM. Students not attending the trip must come to school that day, but we strongly encourage each student to attend, regardless of their longer term plans. Finding out about different schools, visiting different campuses is a very big part of the process in them working through their final decisions.

         Although college may seem a long way off for your child if they are freshmen or sophomores, preparation needs to begin now. Our goal in visiting colleges is to get a glimpse of college life on a variety of college campuses. Generally, students are very impressed when they get on the campus of a university, and we hope the variety of experience helps students with their decision making.

           Juniors need to visit campuses so that they can be prepared to make a well thought-out and prayerful decision next year when applying to colleges. Seniors should have visited a variety of campuses already. This trip is important for them, even if they think they know where they are going. Mr Skinner will be driving and in charge of the trip.

           Costs for this trip is $20.00 which includes transportation as well as lunch and dinner at the colleges.  Please return your completed permission slip to the office as soon as possible so that we can register at the schools. You may contact Mr. Skinner or Mrs. Kerin for additional details.
