Post High School Opportunity Fair

Eighty seniors attended the Post High School Opportunity Fair at the Altoona Area Field House on October 2nd.  Over ninety colleges, universities, career schools, and military branches were represented.  Students had the opportunity to ask questions of the representatives and were provided a wealth of information about the schools in which they are interested.  In addition, job services and financial aid organizations were represented.


On the bus ride home, Mrs. Dixon spoke to a senior who mentioned that the Susquehanna University representative commented to this young lady on the overall attire worn by CCHS students. The Susquehanna University representative went on to say how encouraging it was to see high school students who were appropriately dressed and represented their school district so well.  On behalf of Mrs. Dixon, Mr. Wilson, and the seniors who attended the Post High School Opportunity Fair, we would like to thank the Board for funding the transportation and permitting us to participate in this very worthwhile event.
