We’re proud to celebrate the success of our five Dual Enrollment students this term! Across 11 college-level courses, they earned an outstanding 9 A’s and 2 B’s. This achievement reflects their hard work, dedication, and commitment to academic excellence. Congratulations to our students and thank you to our families and teachers for their continued support!
Dual enrollment is an important opportunity because it allows students to earn college credit while still in high school, giving them a head start on their academic future. Students are challenged by college-level coursework, helping them build confidence, time-management skills, and independence. Dual enrollment also reduces the cost and time required to complete a college degree while giving students valuable experience navigating expectations beyond high school. Overall, it prepares students for postsecondary success by strengthening both academic skills and college readiness.
