Hello, Educators Guild Members! Do you have a student in your classroom who is working years beyond age peers in a particular subject? Do you have a neighboring middle school, high school, or college? If so, dual enrollment may be an option to consider for your gifted students. Dual enrollment occurs when a student is enrolled in two levels of schooling simultaneously. While the term is most commonly applied to high school students concurrently taking college courses, dual enrollment can also be a viable option for students of any age across the board, such as a 4th grader attending the middle school for 7th grade math and science, or a homeschool student attending the high school for AP Government and AP Chemistry. Application of credits varies depending on the state, district, and individual schools; however, it is a very cost effective way to challenge your brightest students.
Here are a few useful articles and resources on dual-enrollment. As always, if you have any questions or if we can help with implementation, please do not hesitate to contact us at: edguild@davidsongifted.org.
