Start College Now

Start College Now allows juniors and seniors in high school to enroll in courses the high school does not have or cannot offer to a student who wants to go above and beyond in a subject area. One benefit of this program is the dual enrollment component. The courses the student takes gives them both high school credit toward graduation as well as college credit to take with them as they continue their educational journey.
