The Galion City School District will be hosting a College Credit Plus informational meeting on Wednesday, February 25. The meeting will be held in the Galion High School cafetorium and will begin promptly at 6:30 p.m. The event is open to any Galion City School District student currently enrolled in grades 6-11.
The meeting will give a general overview of this cooperative educational program and be presented by representatives from the Galion City School District, The Ohio State University at Mansfield and North Central State College. This new program, which gives students the opportunity to earn college credits before high school graduation, replaces Ohio’s current early-college programs such as Post-Secondary Enrollment Options (PSEO) and Dual Enrollment. Tuition, fees and the cost of books will be provided at no cost to parents if their child qualifies for the program.
The program is slated to begin during the 2015-16 school year. The paperwork to declare a student’s intent to participate in the program will be available at the meeting and must be submitted to the Galion Guidance Office by April 1.
For more information about the upcoming informational meeting, please contact High School Guidance Counselors Tena Eyster or Amy Cline at 419-468-6500 or Middle School Guidance Counselor Lisa Zupan at 419-468-3134.
