Reach Higher Week
January 22-26,2024
The REACH HIGHER INITIATIVE is the former First Lady Michelle Obama’s effort to inspire every student in the US 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
