Artifact 22 - dual enrollment agreement

We currently do not have any dual enrollment agreements. We have spoken to the Northern Virginia Community College (NOVA) Veterinary Technician staff and have identified a few classes that might fit the criteria. However, the first priority is ensuring compliance with state CTE courses and maintaining the science credit. Both teachers have had their transcripts evaluated for acceptance as a NOVA staff member. Scott Lockhart is currently qualified to teach and Cindy Schall is within a few credits of being eligible. We have also spoken with Jefferson Community College in <st1:state w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">New York</st1:place></st1:state> about possible articulation credits. When we spoke, both programs were both in the middle of adjusting our curricula. When both schools have made adjustments, we will revisit the possibility of a pathway. Evidence of conversations with both Community Colleges is attached.
