Concurrent enrollment Ashley Farr Cameron Howlett Lauralei Gerber Bryce Sloat Jordan Bishop
What is concurrent enrollment? • CE is college classes available specifically for high school students. It gives both high school and college credit. Tuition is free, but you must pay for books, supplies, etc.
requirements • Finished sophomore year in high school • Apply for admission • Pay $40 fee • Take Accuplacer
Jsdce • Bingham - 28 • Copper Hills - 23 • Riverton - 12 • Herriman - 11 • Valley • West Jordan - 10
Where does hhs stand? • At HHS, there’s only around 100 students taking concurrent enrollment • Where did they hear about it? • How many courses are they taking at once?(This semester)
What should the teachers do? • Do teachers think CE is beneficial for students? What about for teachers? So why isn’t it marketed and taught more at HHS?
Does the school give enough info? • The majority of students heard from their counselors/teachers. From our research, we’ve concluded that self-interest was the main reason kids took CE courses.
Recommendations • CE is only talked about for 5-10 minutes at orientations. We suggest that there is more time to give information about it and the benefits. • Give informative meetings after school for parents. • Send packets with info with registration letters in the mail. • Announcements during school. • Pamphlets or brochures in counseling office.
Recommendations cont. • There isn’t much info on the HHS website about CE. We suggest they give a designated section on the website for more information and requirements.
Summary • Concurrent Enrollment isn’t marketed at HHS effectively. • Students mainly pursue the classes from their own interest. • Not enough information is given to parents and students. • It isn’t really suggested or pushed on high school students. • HHS needs to advertise CE more on the website, at orientations, meetings/parent teacher conferences, and in the counseling center.
