On Monday, March 5th, one hundred colleges and forty local professionals joined the Bellport High School Guidance Department at our annual Spring College and Career Fair. Students met with colleges, training programs, and professionals from around Long Island to learn about the opportunities that await them after high school graduation.

The high school guidance counselors were on staff to assist students and answer college-related questions. In addition to the colleges and careers in attendance; military branches, trade, technical, and aviation schools were available as well.

Students at Bellport High School have multiple opportunities throughout the year to learn about college and career opportunities. The high school guidance counselors host two college fairs; one in fall and another in the spring, and a career fair in the spring. Students are also encouraged to attend large career fairs hosted by Suffolk County Community College and Hofstra University. High school counselors will be meeting with students throughout the spring to assist with college admissions and career planning. Current juniors and their parents/guardians will meet with counselors during the spring to develop a testing timeline and gain an introduction to the college admission process.
