WNC offers several programs that can help high school students “jump start” their college education.
Jump Start College
High achieving juniors and seniors can earn up to an associate degree before they graduate high school. Many school districts pay all or a portion of the costs, making this a rewarding and affordable choice for students.
CTE College Credit
By completing a sequence of CTE classes taught at their high schools, students can receive a certificate of skill attainment in a variety of programs.
Dual Credit/Fast Track
High School students can enroll in any online college classes at a discounted rate (not including FLEX courses).
Homeschool Opportunities
WNC is proud to support a vibrant homeschool community with dual credit opportunities that enable students to align their high school curriculum with college courses.
GEAR UP Nevada
Students are identified as GEAR UP during their 7th grade year and exposed to GEAR UP activities that continue through high school.
Concurrent Enrollment
High School students taking college credit courses for dual enrollment taught at the high school by high school teachers.
