DUAL ENROLLMENT<br />

<strong>Cornerstone</strong> partners with a local college to enable our high school juniors and seniors to take<br />

classes and earn both high school and college credit. Through this program, students can graduate<br />

with up to 26 hours of college credit. As <strong>Cornerstone</strong> covers the full cost of these courses, this gives<br />

our students the incredible opportunity to earn almost a full year of college credit hours to help them<br />

graduate from college on time, or even early, with less student debt. Dual enrollment also introduces<br />

students to the rigors of college coursework early and gives students the opportunity to take classes<br />

beyond those offered at <strong>Cornerstone</strong>.<br />

ACT RESULTS<br />

<strong>Cornerstone</strong> students undergo ACT preparation to help increase their scores and strengthen<br />

their college application. Our <strong>2019</strong> test results showed tremendous gains for our students, with<br />

100% of our students improving, including a student scoring as high as a “35” in one subject area.<br />
