The school year may be ending, but for the College Possible Wisconsin Class of 2026, a new chapter is just beginning!

Recently, we celebrated our graduating high school seniors at LAUNCH!, recognizing the hard work, perseverance, and determination that brought them to this moment. From college applications and financial aid forms to scholarship searches and enrollment decisions, these students have accomplished so much and they’re just getting started.

The day was filled with celebration, connection, and preparation for what comes next. Students played games, won college and dorm essentials, connected with future classmates, explored campus and community resources, and even worked on building their LinkedIn profiles as they prepare to take their next steps.

As they head into college this fall, we’re proud to continue supporting them through our College Success program all the way to college graduation.

Congratulations, Class of 2026. We can’t wait to see what becomes possible for each of you❤️🎓

Thank you to and for supporting this event!

Behind every college acceptance, scholarship, and graduation is something even more powerful: someone who never let a student navigate it alone.

This is the story of the relationships that change lives and what becomes possible when students have someone in their corner.
