Washington County - Connect to Success, Washington County Access Program
Through a total quality commitment to lifelong learning, the Warren Local School District launched its Connect to Success, college access program, in December 2001. Our "program of dreams" will allow the 2600 students of this rural, southeastern Ohio community to realize the benefits of higher education through experiential learning and outcome results.

Connect to Success creates a vision of increased awareness to college access through the implementation of viable programs which highlight the essence of pathways to success.
