Ada High School will host a College Credit Plus meeting at 7 p.m., Wednesday, Feb. 17, via a Zoom link for parents and students attending Ada Jr/Sr High School. 

Students and parents are invited to attend the meeting to learn about the College Credit Plus program mandated by House Bill 487. 

The law allows high school students to enroll in college courses while enrolled in high school, if the student meets eligibility requirements set by the college or university. 

Students may enroll during the school day or in the evening. If the student chooses to use the credit toward high school graduation, the cost of tuition, books, and fees will be paid by the high school. 

In considering this option for next school year, students must evaluate academic records and career goals.  Students must also consider credit requirements for high school graduation, consequences of failing a college course, scheduling, travel time, athletic eligibility, and other factors. 

There are many advantages and disadvantages to this program.  For additional information, contact the high school counselor, Erinn Prater at 419-634-2746, or principal, Dan Lee.
