4 year or Community College

This school sounds so much like our local school (small - last years class was 17, this years is even smaller, and also in NY). My daughter was valedictorian with a weighted average 100.27 (she is going to Denison). Salutatorian had a weighted average of 93.32 and is at SUNY Fredonia (honors), third was 93.14 (attending a CC), fourth 91.18 (workforce), fifth was 89.97 (SUNY Alfred State). Of the college bound kids out of the top five, 6 are at CC, 1 at Fredonia, 1 at Alfred State, and one at Daemen. My older daughter graduated from the same school in 2017 and the stats were slightly higher but the results were similar (she had 22 in her class).

Our school typically sends about 1/4 of the class to CC, 1/4 to a regional 4 year, 1/4 to the workforce, 1/8 to the military and 1/8 out of state.

All this to say, there is a 4 year college out there for you if you choose that path. And if you go down the CC road that is a solid choice as well and certainly wouldn’t preclude you for internships and study abroad opportunities!

Good luck!
