Post Secondary Enrollment Option Available for High Schoolers

The Post Secondary Enrollment Option (PSEO) program allows high school students (grades 9-12) to earn college and high school credits simultaneously by successfully completing college courses. All five school districts in Highland County utilize this program to assist those dedicated students who know what career they want to pursue. This opportunity gives kids a chance to experience college life and it is free! The Ohio Department of Education redirects funds from the public school to the college in order to pay for tuition and books. Enrollment in this program includes a small percentage of the total enrollment at the public schools, which means that the cost to the locals schools is manageable. The PSEO program has allowed several students to earn Associate's degrees by the time they graduate from high school.

This program is not for everyone: challenges are present. Students and parents are encourage to speak with the principal and guidance counselor at their school to find out more information!
