BEDFORD – The North Lawrence County School board has approved the partnership of North Lawrence Career and Technical Center and Vincennes University to offer Project EXCEL to high-school students in the 2023 and 2024 school year.
At yesterday’s board meeting, the NLCS board unanimously approved the partnership.
This program is intended to allow eligible high school students to enroll in Vincennes University Project EXCEL dual-credit courses, earning both Vincennes University credit and high-school credit at once. A qualified high-school instructor, approved by Vincennes University as an adjunct faculty member, will teach the course during the regular high school day.
Students who meet eligibility requirements will be able to earn credits towards Vincennes University before graduating without slowing their high-school progress.
Vincennes University is a public college with its main campus in Vincennes, Indiana. Founded in 1801 as Jefferson Academy, VU is the oldest public institution of higher learning in Indiana.
