School Counts! is proud to be part of the partnership
between our local school districts and UACCM to help our students with tuition
assistance as a School Counts! graduate or an eligible concurrent student. We
currently have 111 concurrent students who are getting a jump start on their
secondary education. Leading up to our School Counts! Week in April, we will be
showcasing a few of the students who are taking advantage of this partnership.
Current Concurrent Class?
Composition I at UACCM
Why did you enroll in a concurrent class?
I wanted to take
advantage of the opportunity to receive dual credit for Comp I and II, which
will give me a jump start on my college career.
What is your possible career goal?
I am leaning toward a career
in surveying. I plan to attend UACCM and pursue a degree in this field.
Do you think concurrent classes are a good idea?
Yes,
concurrent enrollment is a good option for me during my senior year. This
opportunity has given me the chance to experience a college environment.
What is something that most people might not know about you?
I really enjoy spending time in the National Forests. On the weekends, this is
my location of choice.
What do you like about living in Conway County?
As I said
before, I spend a lot of time in the Ouachita and Ozark National Forests.
Conway County is located in the perfect spot for this. Neither is a far drive,
and the county itself is home to some natural wonders.
What is your favorite thing about your high school?
I enjoy
the people I am surrounded by at Sacred Heart. The small environment is
welcoming and the people are willing to help you.
