DUAL ENROLLMENTMCHS scholars are full-time students who engage in honors-level coursework on the MCHS campus. In the afternoon, students take transferable college classes at SBVC every semester, grades 9-12. Eighty percent of students enter MCHS under-performing, in relationship to their ability. Dual enrollment gives students two advantages: It allows students a broader range of classes to match their career goals and interests and it allows students to earn college credits while still in high school.

• Scholars earn 52 transferable college credits upon graduation

• 100% HS Graduation Rate

• 100% A-G Requirements Met

• 100% 4-year College Acceptance
