Helping students see what’s possible and take the next step toward their future.
Dr. Angie Dischinger, Bryant’s Assistant Superintendent for Secondary Education, shared that message today at UALR with school counselors from across Arkansas. She highlighted the difference counselors make when they see a student’s potential, listen to their goals, and help them build a path forward.
Bryant’s partnership with UALR puts that message into action. Through a direct admissions agreement, Hornets can receive proactive college acceptance based on their existing academic records, making the path to college easier to navigate.
UALR also provided seven $1,000 scholarships for counselors to award to students, helping make that next step more affordable.
We’re grateful for our high school counselors and the partners who help our students turn possibilities into plans.
