The Appomattox Regional Governor’s School (ARGS) participates in a Dual Enrollment Program through several partnerships with local colleges and universities. We are excited to offer our students a chance to earn college credit during their time at ARGS.
This opportunity is open to all current sophomores and juniors for the 2026-27 academic school-year who meet the criteria. A student must also demonstrate a readiness for college-level coursework by scoring a passing grade on an Entrance Essay given during his/her English 10 class.
Information will be distributed to students in their English 10 class in early spring of 2026.
Please see the information below for the 2026-27 school year.
