Also, the state of Arizona just approved new funding to support dual enrollment throughout the state. This money will provide tuition assistance for students who take dual enrollment courses and incentives to teachers who get certified to teach these courses. We are really trying to get the word out about this amazing funding!! If you could also add this to the website and link to our designated student and teacher landing pages, that would be very much appreciated! Feel free to share around the school as well since the deadline is Sept. 15th!
