Aaliyah Williams Finds Her Second Chance
For Aaliyah Williams, high school didn’t go as planned. After encountering a difficult situation that forced her to leave her traditional school, she wasn’t sure what her next step would be. But her story didn’t end there—it took a hopeful new turn when her parents discovered Penn Foster online high school.
“I was so happy and just grateful for the second opportunity, and I knew I wasn’t going to take it for granted.”

Thanks to Penn Foster’s self-paced program, Aaliyah developed time management skills, learned how to cite sources using APA and MLA formatting, and completed in-depth research papers that challenged her to grow as a student.
“I really took my time and made sure I understood what I was learning.”
