LSHS students visit ASU
Students from Lexington Sr. High School visited Appalachian State University on Nov. 30.
On Nov. 30, students from Lexington Senior High School traveled west to battle freezing temperatures for an Appalachian State University campus tour.
Martika Byers, site coordinator for LSHS, Arthur Johnson, graduation coach at LSHS, and Chevon Burton, director of the Project Potential program at LSHS, accompanied 34 sophomores, juniors and seniors on the trip. All the students were handpicked based on their GPA and interest in attending college after graduating from high school.
Byers said many of the students were impressed by the ASU campus and plan to apply.
“The biggest selling point for the students was the cost of attendance and the fact that you don’t have the buy books. You rent them for only $104 per semester,” she said.
