Dual enrollment not only helped me prepare for college but helped me with the cost of getting a college education. I’ll never forget taking my FIU dual enrollment sheet to my high school counselor junior year and having her tell me “dual enrollment doesn’t exist” when I had the physical sheet of paper for her to sign for my two dual enrollment courses in front of her. We need to rise up and prepare the next generation by educating them on opportunities like dual enrollment. World peace certainly won’t be attained by simply spreading awareness of opportunities to pursue higher education but long story short i whole heartedly believe that one way we make the world a better place in a practical sense is by sharing resources and opportunities, especially education centered. College certainly isn’t a requirement for success but SO MANY more than capable students miss out on the *opportunity* to pursue higher education because of a lack of knowledge. Reminds me of a Bible verse my people perish for a lack of knowledge. PLEASE share opportunities you know of for students however you can. High school counselors tend to be overworked, underpaid, and honestly many cap advisors don’t even know what they’re doing… It takes a tribe, a community, let’s be part of ensuring more students are at least aware of available resources to help them develop both academically / professionally and personally, PLEASE!
