COLLABORATION CAMPUS: A PATH TO A COLLEGE DEGREE IS CLOSE TO HOME
Collaboration Campus (CC) (partners with DCSD, ACC and CSU) provides students an opportunity to participate and engage in educational and career pathway programming during their junior and senior year of high school.
On  February 12th from 9:10 to 9:40 am, we will have an optional meeting for current sophomores and juniors who are interested in learning more about ACC's new Collaboration Campus. Parents are invited to attend and are welcome to stay afterwards for coffee and conversations with our counselors and administration in the library until 10:30 am. If you are unable to attend, we will post the slideshow and a video on our concurrent enrollment page for you to access at a later time.
FYI: Students will need to indicate interest via the form available in counseling by 2/15/19 for the 2018/2019 school year. 
Please view the  FLYER LINK here with a ton of information but we want to call attention to the very helpful FAQ's on page 2.
