Through Talent Search, which is a program through the University of Arkansas, a group of MHS students visited the campus of John Brown University accompanied by Mrs. Carr and Mrs. Center.
Talent Search is an early intervention/educational opportunity program. Serving students in grades 7-12, the program promotes skills and disseminates information necessary for successfully entering college and completing a baccalaureate degree. Emphasizing personal/career development, financial literacy, technological/academic skills, and ACT readiness through college preparatory workshops, students are prepared for the rigors of higher education. Campus visits, academic monitoring/advising, and guidance in the completion of college and financial aid applications serves the individual needs of participants and their families. Summer enrichment and campus-based events are hosted as funding permits and provide opportunities for institutional collaboration and faculty involvement.
Opportunities like this are fantastic for students to not only see the campus, but to learn more about the college and university. Campus visits get students to thinking about what they want to do after they graduate from MHS.
