Dual Enrollment
Participation in the Dual Enrollment Courses enables students to earn college credit while still in high school. In addition, these programs introduce students to the rigors of college coursework early, and recent studies have shown that students who participate in dual-enrollment programs are more likely go on to get a college degree. Course offerings are listed under Dual Enrollment Programs.
