College Credit Plus

In addition to the wide range of courses that we have available here at LHS, there are other academic options available to our students.

The College Credit Plus (CC+) program is an opportunity for high school students to take college courses while still enrolled in high school. Students have the option of completing courses on a college campus, online, or at LHS.

College classes at LHS include both classes that are taught by LHS teachers who are eligible to serve as adjunct faculty through NCSC.

Classes being taught at LHS include:  Calculus 1, Intro to Business, Marketing, English Composition 1, American Government and Politics, Biology I, Chemistry I, Chemistry II, General Physics, American Culture & History to 1877, American Culture & History from 1877, and College Drawing I.

There are a lot of details involved in participating in the CC+ program and students must complete and submit the paperwork before April 1st to indicate their intent to participate in the CC+ program in the following school year.  One new aspect about CC+ is the fact that students are now eligible to take classes during the summer in addition to during the school year.

In order to explain all of the details of the program and to provide you with the forms necessary, students and parents must attend our Academic Options mandatory meeting. If you were unable to attend on Thursay, February 18th, we have a recording of the presentation given at Pioneer this year. You will need to watch the video, see your counselor to gather the appropriate paperwork, and return the required materials to your counselor by April 1. Please follow this link to watch the video of the CCP presentation: https://youtu.be/lR6W_Ee6u3w

If you have any interest in learning more about College Credit Plus, please talk to your counselor!
