This November, 10th graders from E. C. Glass and Heritage high schools participated in the second annual "Project Launchburg" event.
In collaboration with local colleges and universities, these LCS 10th graders got a jump start into thinking about post high school education, while also learning about the wonderful opportunities right here in Lynchburg.
"Project Launchburg" is a win for everyone. It gets students thinking strongly about higher education, allows our local institutions to promote their schools and gives Lynchburg a greater chance of keeping local talent within the community.
The colleges and universities participating in “Project Launchburg” include: Central Virginia Community College, Liberty University, Lynchburg College, Lynchburg General School of Nursing, Randolph College, Sweet Briar College and Virginia University of Lynchburg.
