Old Rochester Regional High School students were able to convince the ORR School Committee to let their dual enrollment classes count toward grade point averages at a Dec. 9 meeting.
Dual enrollment classes count toward a student’s transcript, but are take at community colleges rather than with teachers from ORR.
Before the motion passed, the courses counted neither toward students’ GPAs nor class rank.
Students, supported by Principal Michael Devoll, said that wasn’t fair when dual enrollment can be just as rigorous as an Advanced Placement course. Those classes count toward both GPAs and class rank.
