College-level course work a plus for high school students
Dennis Kelly - Contributing columnist
I would be the first to say that given the opportunity to earn college credits before you graduate from high school is an opportunity worth pursuing. I believe there’s only an upside in high school students doing this.
This column will ask you to think through why you should or are taking these college-level credits in the first place. In other words, where can they fit into your professional game plan?
Many high schools allow certain college-level course work to satisfy some high school graduation requirements, as well as give you the opportunity to enter college with academic credits under your belt. College credit courses taken in Ohio (CCP-College Credit Plus) are subsidized by your school district as funding is available.
