“The transition from high school to college is hard for any student but for a student with a disability and it can be more challenging,” said Maria Gonzalez, WHCL counselor and one of the program coordinators. “The ALPS Academy eases the transition for students with disabilities by teaching learning strategies to successfully compete in the classroom, introducing campus resources, and teaching students how to navigate the college landscape.”
The academy is free for students and lunch will be provided. There are only 22 spots available and the deadline to register is July 14.
