Round Rock ISD students will have the opportunity to get college credit while still being in high school thanks to a partnership with Austin Community College and Texas State University.
When those students walk across the stage, they will have a high school diploma, and a teacher aide certification.
"They're putting teachers first, and they're putting students first. So, like together they're kind of lifting them up and prioritizing the students experience and what they want to do whenever they go to college," said Grace Nelson, Round Rock ISD student. College tuition can really put a toll on some families. To relieve some of that stress, Round Rock ISD students will be able to get about 30 college credits for free.
"Both campuses are nearby. And so, there's also the convenience there, too, and also costs helping them with costs when it comes to tuition and traveling and all that good stuff," said Azaiez."This program is going to be amazing for them because it's really going to let students get even more experience with teaching if they're thinking of looking into that," said Nelson.
Dr. Azaiez said incoming freshmen can talk to their counselor about enrolling in dual credit classes.that I have read and agree
