**Grades 7-12 future planning support through VSAC**

VSAC Talent Search is a Federal TRIO program with the mission to provide information and experiences to first generation and limited-income students to inspire them to set goals for higher education after high school. Students in the program meet individually (grades 11 and 12) and in small groups (grades 7-10) with Carrie Harlow at Mt. Abe once a month for 30-45 mins to work on goal setting, academic support, career planning, and college awareness activities. Students can also participate in field trips throughout the year as well as summer academic programs to expose them to career and college opportunities that can ultimately help them in planning for their future. Here are the links to our online student application, and the parent application.
