Today’s spotlight features some quotes from our current EC students! Emalee Dorr, a current junior at ACS stated “I chose EC because I knew that I would be able to cut the time down on my college education because I was doing it while in high school. There was also free college tuition involved so that really helped me choose this program.” Senior Ava Brege stated “I joined the Early College program because it's a great opportunity to cover credits before you go to a university. I'll be able to do most of my general education requirements in my fifth year of high school, then I'll be able to focus on my major when I transfer to a university.
