Next week Clover Garden is premiering a new program aimed at helping our students prepare for their long-term futures. Mission Accepted is designed to educate our students about college and career opportunities that await them after graduation from high school. Education is the main focus, but we also want to excite students about the potential that they posses to make big dreams happen. That starts with a dream, a plan, and ends in success based on the work our students put in. Mission Acceptance will help provide the skills and tools our students need to do just that–succeed.

Events are planned for middle and high school students. We believe it is never too early to start setting SMART goals and assisting our students toward their full potential.

During our first event, Friday, October 1st, we will have eight colleges/universities on campus virtually. Representatives from East Carolina, UNC-Wilmington, UNC-Charlotte, UNC-Greensboro, Elon University, Greensboro College, Appalachian State, and NC A&T will answer student questions, give virtual tours, and educate our ninth through twelfth graders on their respective campuses, the application process, and more. There will be other sessions hosted by CGS faculty and staff that discuss searching for an applying for scholarships, paying for college, and more.

Colleges and universities were invited to take part in this event based on survey data collected from our students. There are more Mission Accepted events planned for the the future so be on the lookout for dates and colleges coming to campus soon.
