Plainview Collegiate High School reports dual‑credit totals and CCMR success as first class nears graduation
Summary
Administrators reported PCHS cohort sizes, dual‑credit semester hours earned and high college and career readiness rates for the program’s first graduating class.
Plainview Collegiate High School (PCHS) presented data to the Plainview ISD Board showing substantial dual‑credit accumulation and high college readiness among its early college cohorts.
PCHS reported that the class of 2025 includes 58 students; the presentation said the cohort earned a collective 2,643 dual credit semester hours and that 100% of that cohort met College, Career and Military Readiness (CCMR) standards. The presenter said 96% of the class of 2025 had already decided on their university and that graduates plan to attend institutions including Texas Tech University, University of Texas at Austin, Angelo State University, West Texas A&M and University of Mary Hardin‑Baylor.
Data for other cohorts: the class of 2026 has 59 students who have earned 2,234 dual credit semester hours and a reported 95% meeting CCMR; the class of 2027 was listed at 27 students with 1,244 dual credit hours and an 80% completion rate; the freshman class (class of 2028) was reported at 78 students with a 98% completion rate for the grade level and 8% of that freshman cohort already meeting CCMR, with a projection of 161 dual credit semester hours by May 2025.
The presenter described student supports at PCHS: success coaches in classrooms, teacher and professor office hours, study halls before and after school, and access to tutoring through partner institutions. The board was told that before any student is withdrawn from a dual credit course the school pursues interventions including meetings with professors, study hall, tutoring and parent/student/teacher conferences.
PCHS staff said a total of 51 Plainview High School students already have enrolled in dual credit courses at PCHS; collectively they were offered 455 dual credit semester hours. The presenters also noted expanded partner options (Tarleton, Angelo State and South Plains) to increase dual‑credit availability across the district.
Ending: The presentation concluded with a staff offer to answer questions and to provide additional data on request. No board vote was needed for the informational report.
