BCC Dual Credit

High school students have the opportunity to take college classes through Butler Community College for dual credit.  Several are offered at CHS and can be part of your class schedule.  Others are taken on campus or on-line though BCC.  NOTE: Classes taken at BCC for dual credit may not be dropped after the 3rd week of class attendance without effecting the students transcript.
