Attention Junior and Senior Parents:

SDBOR dual credit enrollment opens Nov 1st for the spring semester! Students can stop by any time starting tomorrow to discuss dual credit course options. A few important items to note:

-Courses can fill fast, so it's best to apply ASAP
-New students/ parents to the dual credit program will need to sign an agreement with the school to be considered
-These are college-level advanced courses, so expect additional time outside of the school day to complete instruction
-Tuition is $78.48 per credit hour plus the cost of materials (MHS does not have access to student billing and thus sole responsibility of payment lies on the parent/student)

Quick link for additional information on the dual credit program: https://ourdakotadreams.com/k12-students/dual-credit/

Please reach out with any questions!
