    As a part of our college and career-going culture, your child has the opportunity to apply for enrollment in college courses at Front Range Community College (FRCC) while attending high school in Mapleton. Concurrent enrollment supports our commitment to providing each student with rigorous academic content, enrichment opportunities, and access to academic courses beyond what is available in high school.

     

    To ensure no obstacle impedes your child’s success, Mapleton Public Schools pays the tuition for district-approved college courses successfully completed by the student.  Your child may also receive high school credit towards graduation requirements for successful completion of approved postsecondary courses.

     

    Qualifications

    To participate in concurrent enrollment, students must request approval from their School Director and Post-Secondary Options Coach (PSOC).

    To qualify for concurrent enrollment, students must:

    • Be less than 21 years of age
    • Be enrolled in a Mapleton high school (9th-12th grade)
    • Meet the minimum prerequisites and academic readiness for the postsecondary courses in which they seek to enroll according to both Front Range Community College and Mapleton Public Schools

    Step 2:                   

    (Ongoing) Your child must maintain communication with his/her PSOC and complete all required concurrent enrollment steps. Your child’s PSOC will ensure it fits his/her Individualized Career and Academic Plan.

     

    Step 3:                    

    By Wednesday, March 15, 2023, the Parent/Guardian attends the information session and electronically signs and submits the Concurrent Enrollment Agreement  (FRCC Concurrent Enrollment College Agreement). Your child will need his/her FRCC-issued student number (“S-number”) to sign the form.
