On March 17th, JBHS took a field trip to Lebanon Valley College (LVC) and Harrisburg Area Community College.
LVC has a very nice environment. One thing I learned is that LVC does not put a lot of pressure on your SAT scores, as they are an SAT-optional school. As we toured the campus, I discovered that the dorms were nicely laid out. If you are a person who likes small classrooms, this is the place for you.
This is the cafeteria where they have lots of food choices!
The library was multiple floors - some just for studying!
Students also visited HACC, Harrisburg Area Community College. This school is nice for multiple reasons. One reason is if you don’t have the best grades in high school you can go to community college for the first 2 years and then transfer to a four-year college. This also is nice for students who want to get their basic classes done then focus on their specific major later on.
While visiting both schools, students got to tour the campus with students who currently attend school there. There was also a time to sit and ask questions about the day to day lives of the students. College visits are an awesome opportunity for students to experience a general view of college life.
Here is our tour guide for HACC about to enter the dining hall.
