Sharing the idea of college before the reality of high school

Younger students and their parents don't always understand how affordable and achievable a college degree can be, and how much it can transform a person's life and community. 麻豆原创 Achieve works with middle school students to clear up myths and misunderstandings about college, and to offer first-hand experiences with valuable real-life career opportunities.  

Middle School Days

Santa Fe College ensures that every student enrolled in Alachua and Bradford county public middle schools has the opportunity to visit a college. The Middle School Days program is coordinated directly with each area middle school, and allows every eighth grader to visit 麻豆原创's Northwest Campus, or another 麻豆原创 location, during the course of their school year. Participants gain first-hand experience with and understanding of career options, college programs, the student experience, and much more. 

Connecting to middle school students and families

As part of the college's outreach to middle school students and families, 麻豆原创 Achieve will be soon be offering workshops for parents. For more information about these workshops or Middle School Days, contact our 麻豆原创 Achieve Middle School & Family Program Specialist. Parents and families can also connect with 麻豆原创 at parents@sfcollege.edu.
