Here at Dublin ISD, we have decided that one of the best things for our students is to pay for all students' TSI tests and half of their Dual Credit Tuition if they do not qualify for the FAST program.
A passing Math/ELAR TSI test is a requirement for any student to take Dual Credit through Ranger College.
Students who are taking the Welding or Cosmetology courses through Ranger College are not required to take the TSI tests.
The US History II Dual Enrollment Course through Tarleton State University is a writing intinsive course. We do look at English II EOC scores and PSAT10 scores to determine student's eligibility to take this course.
All students will need to apply to Ranger College if you are planning on taking College level courses, Welding, and/or Cosmetology.
Students can start taking Dual Credit Classes their Sophomore year of high school.
Students can earn their Associate of Art and or Science by completing the course requirements below.
We keep a spreadsheet just like the one below for each student so we can help your child decide which courses to take next.
Students will complete most Ranger College classes online. For every two online classes the student has, they will have one library class period. For example: If your child signs up for four online dual credit classes, we will provide them two library class periods to work on their online course work.
MUSI 1306 - Music Appreciation - Is taught at the high school by one of the Band Directors, Mr. Dunlap.
HITT 1305 - Medical Terminology - Is taught at the high school by Nurse Christy.
COST: $50 per credit hour. Remember, the school pays half if your child does not qualify for the FAST program.
Students must start their Level 1 Certificate in Welding their Junior year of high school.
The Ag teacher, Mr. Price, teaches the classes listed below for two class period each day.
COST: $50 per credit hour. Remember, the school pays half if your child does not qualify for the FAST program.
Students must start on the Cosmetology program their Junior year of high school.
The school will pay for your child's cosmetology kit, however, please keep in mind that if the student drops cosmetology after the kits are purchased, the student will be required to pay the school back for the kit. The kit is good for both years the student will be taking cosmetology courses.
Cosmetology Kit Cost: $637.70 each.
COURSE COST: $50 per credit hour. Remember, the school pays half if your child does not qualify for the FAST program.
Students will leave DHS to attend their courses at Ranger College in Stephenville. The student is responsible for their own transportation to and from classes. If Dublin ISD is out of school and Ranger College still has school and students must attend Ranger College for their class.
Students will have classes at DHS for 1st - 4th periods and students will leave after lunch to go to Ranger College in Stephenville to attend their Cosmetology classes.
COSMETOLOGY TEST: DHS will pay for your child's first Cosmetology test in Austin or virtually. If the student does not pass the test the first time, they will be required to pay for the test themselves.
We currently offer the following college credit courses through Tarleton State University.
US History II - US History
Students can decide to accept or deny their college course grade through Tarleton at the end of the course.
If students choose to accept their college course grade through Tarleton, their high school transcript will show the course was taken as a dual credit course. Their college grade does not go on their high school transcript and will only be on their Tarleton transcript.
If students choose to not accept their college course grade through Tarleton, their high school transcript will show the course was taken as a honors course.
This program does not require the TSI to take the course, however, we will be looking at your child's English II EOC scores, and PSAT10 scores to determine student eligibility to take these courses. These courses are college level courses and are writing intensive.
Algebra I and English II score - 4000 or higher on their EOC. Meaning meets or higher.
If your student did not make a 4000 or higher on their EOCs, we look at their PSAT10 score. If your student makes a 1000 or higher on their PSAT10 score, they will be eligible to take the Dual Enrollment courses.
