New Program Prepares High School Graduates For College Level Work at Manchester Community College

Manchester’s Reaching Education Achievement for College Transition (REACT) program is a partnership between Manchester Adult and Continuing Education and to provide a supportive educational environment for students who want to transition to college. 

Participants will earn two college credits and complete the equivalent of Manchester Community College’s developmental English and Math sequence. Students will receive support services, participate in cultural enrichment excursions that support their learning program, meet and learn with other students with the same goals and receive continued support from Manchester Community College staff after completion of the program.

There is no cost to the student for the program. Manchester REACT meets for eighteen weeks, beginning in February, Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 2p.m. and Friday, 9 a.m. to noon.

Testing and interviews for the REACT program will take place on Feb. 2. To apply, contact Manchester Community College at 860-512-2603.
