Dual-enrollment courses at Pacific Grove High linked with higher four‑year college matriculation for Class of 2025
Summary
Teachers and counselors told the board that Pacific Grove High’s dual-enrollment program has expanded and that the class of 2025 posted stronger college application and commitment results, with staff and parents citing CCAP partnerships with Monterey Peninsula College and increased course offerings as drivers.
Pacific Grove High School’s growing dual‑enrollment program — where students earn high‑school and community‑college credit simultaneously — coincided with stronger 4‑year college outcomes for the Class of 2025, school staff told the board at its Aug. 7 meeting.
The high school’s English, psychology, engineering, computer-science and culinary pathways now include College and Career Access Pathway (CCAP) courses taught on the high‑school campus by Monterey Peninsula College (MPC) faculty or by district teachers using MPC course agreements, presenters said. "These dual‑enrollment courses allow high‑school students to earn both high‑school credit and college credit at the same time," said Jessica Grogan, who teaches the English dual‑enrollment course.
