Do you have high school credits from either a public, private or home school? Are you ready to use those credits and earn your High School Diploma? Are you ready to begin the pathway to a better future? MTCC gives you that opportunity – Free of charge!
AHS offers a student the opportunity to use previously obtained high school credits(whether public, private or home school). The student will work through courses in class and/or (limited) on-line classes to achieve the required credits (currently 22) and will graduate with a high school diploma.
Students that accumulate a pre-determined number of credits approved by McDowell County Schools can graduate with a high school diploma. Credits acquired prior to AHS attendance will be evaluated and may count toward the total needed for graduation.
The MTCC Adult High School (AHS) program offers students a chance to complete the credits needed to earn a high school diploma. An advisor/instructor will review each student’s high school transcript to determine how many classes are needed to earn a diploma.
Students must be at least 18 years old Students aged 16-17 years old may attend with the submission of a Minor Release Petition (MRP) Form.
Orientation – Students must attend an Orientation prior to enrollment into AHS. During orientation, assessments are performed on all new students.
Transcript – An official High School trancript from the last school attended
is required for credit evaluation BEFORE a student can begin AHS classes. AHS is a managed enrollment class. Students may only start AHS during the first week of the 9 week session.
Attendance – A strict attendance policy is observed for AHS class. In addition, the student must make up all work on their own time for any absence within a specified period of time.
