Dual Enrollment for Homeschool Students - High School & College at the same time.
This opportunity allows students to start taking college classes online while in high school. This is a great advantage. You don't have to worry about national tests (like the SAT) that only measure 1% of intelligence. Available through a collaboration between St Raphael/ Schole Academy and the University of St Katherine.
