ACS has received a $10,000 grant from the Michigan College Access Network (MCAN) to launch the Early College Recharge Program, expanding our existing Early College initiative. This program, supported by Alpena Community College (ACC) and Alpena Alcona Area Credit Union (AAACU), aims to strengthen the transition from high school to college through promoting a college-going culture, removing barriers to post-secondary education, and providing students with the tools and support they need to succeed. By starting the conversation about college early on, it helps students better understand their options, build confidence in navigating higher education pathways, and make informed decisions about their future academic and career goals.
