Purpose

Corrigan-Camden ISD embraces and supports the College For All Concept, which enables high school students to earn college credits prior to their high school graduation.  Dual enrollment courses are college-level courses taken by high school students to receive high school and college credit.  Students may earn dual credit for classes approved by the Board of Trustees in agreement with Angelina College.

While enrolled in the Dual Credit program, the student is considered an Angelina College student.  Angelina College instructors are unable to discuss student information with anyone other than the student due to privacy laws.  Students wanting their parent/guardian to access or obtain their record should give that person a signed release specifying what they need and a copy of the students’ picture ID.  We know that each parent wants the best for their student and we encourage your participation.  Nevertheless, we must ask that every parent support CCHS and Angelina College’s policies and procedures.

Admissions

All student must complete an application through Anegelina.edu.  Once the application has been received and reviewed by Angelina College then the student should receive and welcoming email from Angelina College.  This email will supply the student with their login information needed to access blackboard, etc.  

Required Testing

The Texas Success Initiative (TSI) is a state-mandated program that applies to all students enrolling at Angelina College as a first-year college student.  Students are required to take the TSI assessment to demonstrate college readiness.  This placement test helps counselors and advisors assist in choosing the right classes to meet all college requirements.  Students MUST complete the application process and have TSI scores in the CCHS academic advising office by the last day of  school year.

All students must provide proof of receipt of the Bacterial Meningitis vaccine in order to attend classes at Angelina College.

Corrigan-Camden High School provides students an opportunity to take the TSI three times, in each subject, at no cost to the student.  Students that do not meet standards on the TSI will have an opportunity to retake the test and may participate in a TSI tutorial through a computer-based program on their own time.  CCHS schedules two TSI testing opportunities, students not meeting the educational requirements will be responsible for the expense of taking the TSI at either an alternative location or at CCHS.  The cost for each additional test at CCHS will be $10 after the first three.
