McCaskey Campus is proud to support students on their educational journeys. One way McCaskey does this is by encouraging students to take college classes while they are still in high school. The School District of Lancaster covers the cost of one college course per semester for any qualifying student through “dual enrollment”. SDoL is the ONLY district in Lancaster County that offers this unique benefit. There are a lot of college partners to choose from.  To participate, you must have a 2.5 GPA or higher. Students with a lower GPA may be able to participate but would require special approval from McCaskey Campus administration. Some college partners have additional requirements. Are you interested? Talk with your counselor about dual enrollment today!
