Unlocking the Benefits of Concurrent Enrollment at Sage Oak
In this episode of Sage Studio, host Tiffiny Webster is joined by Sage Oak School Counselor Coral Prendergast to discuss the advantages of concurrent enrollment for high school students. They explain how Sage Oak students can take community college classes to earn both high school and college credit simultaneously, a program that is tuition-free with some minor fees. They cover the types of classes available through this program, including English, History, Government, Economics, and Counseling, and provide insights into the enrollment process and eligibility criteria. The episode also highlights the benefits of these classes, such as early college credit, skill development, and counselor support, as well as some challenges like FERPA regulations and class registration timelines. Parents and students are encouraged to discuss their goals with their EA or school counselor to take advantage of this incredible opportunity.
