The Reach Higher initiative is an effort to inspire every student in America to take charge of their future by completing their education past high school, whether at a professional training program, a community college, or a four-year college or university.
The Reach Higher initiative will help make sure all students understand what they need to complete their education, including:
Exposing students to college and career opportunities
Understanding financial aid eligibility that can make college affordability a reality
Encouraging academic planning and summer learning opportunities
Supporting high school counselors who can help more kids get into college
