Dual Enrollment PHSC Courses will be up on the PHSC website the week after Spring Break (tentative) When selecting courses think about the classes required for an Associates Degree Equivalency list posted on my twitter account PHSC students pick classes first, so you may not get your first choice section Summer Session B Course registration is in April *around the 15th* Please see me before to sign course registration card Fall Course registration is over the summer Please have course registration card to be me by May 20th

Dual Enrollment Commitment College level course means college level student responsibility College professors and PHSC are not required to communicate with parents. You have to give permission and will have to work together. Must maintain a 2.0 in dual enrollment classes If I drop below a 2.0, I know I can no longer take any more dual enrollment classes As a dual enrollment student, I realize all classes I take will permanently go on my college transcript

What if I am Off-Track? If you are behind in credits: Credit recovery during extended school day Summer School (morning/afternoon sessions for 10 days) Retake class on FLVS or Pasco eSchool If it was an elective, you can replace any elective with another elective Credit recovery class next year instead of an elective

What if I am Off-Track? My GPA is below a 2.0: Push for the higher grade; A s and B s are your best friend D s are just as harmful to your GPA as an F is You can replace any D on FLVS or Pasco eSchool Only take if you know you can get an A or B, if you receive a D a second time it will count against you twice Recover all F s through credit recovery or virtually Attendance! If you are not here it is hard to make the higher grade

What if I am Off-Track? I have not passed the Algebra EOC: Prepare and practice Some great online resources include: https://www.khanacademy.org http://mathnation.com http://www.floridastudents.org
