🎓Drumroll please! Today we are kicking off our Early College application period! Did you know that ACS has an Early College (EC) Program? Today we will be kicking off our EC campaign with Ms. Cordes, our EC Coordinator. From now until April we will be highlighting our program, student accomplishments, college resources available to our students, and more! Today's feature is the introduction of Ms. Cordes, our EC Coordinator. Did you know that ACS has a partnership with Alpena Community College that allows our EC Coordinator to have an office at the ACC campus in Alpena? Every Wednesday Ms. Cordes can be found in her ACC office, room 110A in the Newport Center. Being on campus allows Ms. Cordes to better support and meet with our full-time college students. Sometimes former students even stop in to say hello and get help with transferring to a 4 year university, applying for ACC commencement, and transitioning into the workforce. Picture is Cecelia Spears, who graduated in our 1st EC cohort (2022). Join us February 28th to learn more about Early College! Current ACS 10th graders can apply to EC by April 8th at: bit.ly/ACS-EC-App #alconaschools #earlycollege #applytoday
