Bonny Eagle High School was honored recently for its participation in the Early College for ME program. Early College for ME is a transition program designed for students who have the potential to succeed in college but who might be undecided or otherwise lack the support to pursue post-secondary study.

The school district has worked in partnership with Maine’s community colleges and the Early College for ME regional staff for the past five years to help students apply to and enroll in college directly from high school. As one of the 25 original participating schools in the state, Bonny Eagle High School was recognized by the program’s staff as a valuable partner in building an effective program that continues to engage and motivate students to pursue college.
