✨ Stay after the presentation and explore our AP, Dual Enrollment & Elective Fair! Teachers will be available to answer questions and share details about course offerings and opportunities.
📣 Plus, there’s more to come!
• 8th grade students will attend a high school assembly at Strayer on January 15
• Strayer Counselors will visit classrooms this month to assist with course selection in PowerSchool
We look forward to welcoming our future Panthers and their families!

This informational event is designed to help students plan for their future by learning more about the wide range of courses available at the high school level. Families will have the opportunity to explore nearly 100 course options, including Dual Enrollment, Advanced Placement (AP), and elective offerings that allow students to earn college credits, challenge themselves academically, and discover new interests.
Representatives from partner institutions—including the University of Pittsburgh, Harrisburg University, and Arizona State University—will be on hand to share information about dual enrollment pathways and how students can begin their college journey early, often at a fraction of the cost of traditional college tuition.
The fair is a valuable opportunity for students and families to ask questions, connect directly with educators and college partners, and gain a clearer understanding of how today’s course choices can shape future academic and career goals.
All students and families are encouraged to attend and take advantage of this chance to plan ahead, get informed, and get inspired.
