St. Clair County Community College recently welcomed close to 1,800 eighth graders from across the county for the annual collaboration with the St. Clair County RESA aimed at exposing young students to college. While on campus, students learned about the arts and health science careers, explored machining and mechatronics labs, and toured college facilities such as the library, Fieldhouse, and the Hands-on Science Center. President of SC, Dr. Deborah Snyder stated, “As this region’s go-to community college, we have an opportunity and responsibility to provide early college exposure to young students and their parents. We are grateful to RESA and the many teachers and chaperones from across the county who help make this initiative possible.”
