High School Graduation Requirements

Dual Enrollment

Dual enrollment refers to several enrollment programs through which a high school student takes one or more courses from a state public or private postsecondary institution and receives credit at the high school and at the postsecondary institution. Dual enrollment guidelines vary according to the option the student pursues. Depending on the dual enrollment option chosen, eligible students may enroll either part-time or full-time in approved credit-bearing courses. Students typically begin dual enrollment coursework in their junior or senior year.  Any student who wishes to be dual enrolled should schedule a conference with a counselor who can provide details regarding the requirements and benefits of various options for dual enrollment.  Student and parent participation in an advisement session with a school official is a requirement for any dual enrollment program.

If the post-secondary institution awards a numerical grade, that grade will be recorded on the transcript.  If the postsecondary institution awards letter grades, the letter grades will be correlated and recorded on the transcript as follows:

A = 99          B = 89          C = 79         D = 70         F = 69
