In keeping with the school district’s mission of lifelong learning, the college counseling office encourages all students to pursue post-secondary education. We strive to help each student find the best fit for his or her academic and personal needs.
We meet with students beginning in seventh grade and continuing through senior year — guiding them through the process of preparing for post-secondary study, searching for schools, applying to colleges, and securing financial aid. Our goal is to ensure that all Liberty Bell graduates have the opportunity to pursue post-graduate education at colleges, universities or technical/trade schools that best suit their academic and personal goals.

College Admissions & Financial Aid
At Liberty Bell, our goal is to help students achieve their goals after high school, including getting accepted to college or technical school. The district has many college resources to support students in their search.
An important part of college admissions is determining finances. We offer opportunities at school to help students and parents learn more about financial aid and how to afford college.
