Dual Enrollment for 2022-2023 – As Cary Christian School continues to pursue academic excellence, we are looking for additional opportunities for the 2022-2023 school year. CCS has a long history of preparing our students well for their futures. Our expectation is that our students’ education should exceed state requirements. As such, we have earned and maintained a full accreditation through the Association of Classical Christian Schools (ACCS). Considering current uncertainties with the SAT and ACT, our students are looking to us to continue to provide the necessary foundation for their futures. Both the Director of College Counseling and the Academic Dean receive an increasing number of requests to approve external Dual Enrollment and add AP Classes to allow our students to be more competitive for college applications. Students will often take college level courses elsewhere to add to their already attractive transcript, for two reasons: to be noticed by elite colleges and to begin earning college credits through dual enrollment (dual credit). Next year we will be offering some classes as dual credit. We will have a meeting towards the end of the year to present the program and potential courses that qualify for dual credit for rhetoric school parents and students.

Our prayer for our school is that the Lord would use Cary Christian to call each of our students to be rooted and grounded in love . . . filled with all the fullness of God (Ephesians 3:17-19).
