College Fair on Monday!!!!

 Attend a college fair from your couch!  The PROBE Fair is an annual "right of passage" for all who want to go to college after graduation.  A college fair is a time to shop out college options from the large group of colleges who will assemble to tell students and parents all about their campuses and programs.  Attending a college fair will help families and students identify colleges that are a good fit for them.  An important consideration is whether or not the college has the major that the student wants to pursue.  There are other important factors as well, such as size of the school, setting and extracurricular options.

On November the 2nd, the PROBE Fair will start.  It will be offered over several nights and will be done virtually.  This is a free event and can really help a freshman, sophomore, junior or senior get a grasp of what life after graduation looks like.
