COLLEGE CONNECTIONS TECH PREP

High school students have the opportunity to get a jump start on their career by preparing for a college technical degree program at their local high school. They can earn BOTH high school AND community/technical college credit (this is called DUAL CREDIT) for completing select high school courses with a grade of “B” (3.0) or better, at NO COST to the students or parents!
