Press release

The Galion High School is pleased to host the College Credit Plus informational meeting Wednesday, February 1. The meeting will be held in the High School cafetorium and will begin promptly at 6:30 p.m.

Students currently enrolled in grades 6-11, and their parents, are encouraged to attend this event. The meeting is the first step required in the application process.

The meeting will give a general overview of this cooperative educational program and be presented by counselors from the Galion High School and Middle School, The Ohio State University-Mansfield and North Central State College. This program gives students the opportunity to earn college credit before graduation. Tuition, fees and the cost of books will be provided at no cost to parents if their child qualifies for the program.

“We are working diligently to increase the number of College Credit Plus courses offered to students on the Galion campus for the 2017-2018 school year,” said High School Principal Ron Williams. “Our goal is to allow our students to take full advantage of this outstanding educational program while still having the ability to participate in extra-curricular and co-curricular activities offered in our building.”

Students who are currently enrolled in the program and plan to continue during the 2017-2018 school year do not need to attend the meeting. However, a blue College Credit Plus Intent to Continue Participation form must be submitted to the Guidance Office by March 31.

For more information about the upcoming informational meeting, please contact Galion High School counselors Tena Eyster or Amy Cline at 419-468-6500, or Galion Middle School counselor Amanda Watkins at 419-468-3134.
