This program enables high school juniors and seniors to earn college credit while completing high school at no cost. The intent of the program is to promote rigorous educational pursuits and provide a wider variety of options for students while they earn college credit. Interested students should make an appointment with their counselor to discuss this option.

Counselors hold a parent/student informational meeting in February regarding an overview of the PSEO options. Following this meeting, if the student plans to pursue PSEO a small meeting consisting of a counselor, parent and student will be required. These meetings will take place March 1st and after.
