Jackson Center High School Offers 12 Dual Enrollment Options & 2 AP Courses

Dual enrollment has had such a positive impact on my education.  I was able to transfer 21 credit hours, all taken in high school, to college.  This has helped cut down on costs and time.  I am very thankful that Jackson Center offered dual enrollment, and would hope that this kind of program is continued for other students at Jackson Center.

Taking dual enrollment classes in high school was a huge relief for me when I got to college; I entered as a sophomore.  All of the rest of my friends are completely bogged down with the max amount of classes, most of which ones I have already credit for.  Taking the basics in high school definitely helped me put me ahead of the rest and allowed me extra study time to focus more on the classes I need to do extremely well in for my major.

Dual enrollment helped out tremendously with furthering my education before I even made it to college! With the dual enrollment credits that I earned while still in high school, I am a semester ahead of all the other freshmen at Wilmington College.  This means that I am already guaranteed to graduate in 3 1/2 years, and if I work hard, hopefully I can make the 3 1/2 years turn into 3 years.  College is not cheap, so getting ahead while you're still in high school is a very smart decision and will save you lots of money!  Take dual enrollment classes, you won't regret it!

Jackson Center FCCLA Reaches Out to MH Unit

 

Jackson Center FCCLA members reached out to the multi-handicapped unit at their school through a community service project. The project was titled “You’ve Got a Friend” and the goal in mind was to make the MH students feel more part of the student body. On five different occasions, the students planned simple activities to do with the kids to help them feel less isolated and more involved with the student body. The activities included: coloring pictures for a coloring contest, preparing a fruit salad, tie dying shirts, making foam door hangers, and providing a Christmas party with gifts for the kids. Not only did the MH kids enjoy the time spent with the FCCLA members, but they also felt more comfortable and safe around the students. As said by the teacher for the MH students, “The hands-on experiences provided to the students with multiple disabilities were time that the students enjoyed and looked forward to. This was a great opportunity for the students to spend time with their peers while engaging in fun activities.” It was a great experience for the FCCLA and the MH unit; both sides commonly gained a heartwarming reward: Friendship.
