Students Excelling in College Coursework

Our kids continue to leverage opportunities through our participation in the Illinois State Board of Education Competency Based Education Pilot. We were part of the original pilot and are 1 of 47 school districts participating in the pilot statewide. As part of the program, our high school students have the ability to earn their Associate's Degree (FREE OF CHARGE) while they are in high school. As a result of our participation and kids willing to accept the challenge, this fall, 30% of our high school students enrolled in college coursework, FREE OF CHARGE. And how did they do? With the results of GAVC college coursework yet to post, thus far, our kids successfully completed 58 college courses with a collective 3.55 grade point average! Yeah, THEY ROCKED IT! Congratulations to everyone working to position themselves for success at the next level! KEEP ROCKIN!
