Over the past decade, leaders at Lee College and Goose Creek ISD in Baytown, Texas have developed a strong dual enrollment partnership with nearly a third of high school graduates taking dual credit and half returning to Lee College after HS. The Lee/Goose Creek partnership has prioritized broadening college access and ensuring all students leave high school on a path that will enable them to earn family-sustain wages. As a partnership they have implemented various strategies to support this on a large scale, including shared advising, multiple measures placement, support for teacher credentialing, and dual credit embedded into high school career academies and CTE programs of study. In this webinar, attendees will hear directly from Lee/Goose Creek leaders how they’ve developed an effective partnership, as well as how their work exemplifies emerging findings from the Community College Research Center at Columbia University in studying how college and K12 partnership are extending ‘guided pathways’ reforms to high school to broaden the benefits of dual enrollment.
