  13. Student Savings

  14. Questions • Does OTC require the high school to use the same book? • Yes. But we understand book purchasing cycles and will work with you on off years to approve current book. • Are students successful in online classes? • Overwhelmingly yes. These students are chosen by GPA and by you as ready to start college level courses. Over 100 students participate in online courses every semester and 99% are successful. Is it hard work? Yes, but many students are ready for the challenge.

  15. Early Start

  16. Early Start • Early Start is designed for high school students taking courses outside of their normal high school load. • Regular college tuition • Eligible for up to two courses per semester

  17. Why Early Start vs. Dual Credit? • SUMMER BREAK! The number one time when students take Early Start courses is during summer break. Students can complete a summer college course at the OTC campuses, or education centers, or online. • Students don’t have time in their high school schedule to add a college course. • Courses not available at their high school for dual credit.

  18. FastTrack OTC’s Newest High School Program

  19. FastTrack • FastTrack students are able to take courses at any OTC campus or education center during their high school hours and the high school is responsible for the tuition.

  20. Wait a minute…$$$ • Why would the high school pay for the courses? • You do not have instructors to teach dual credit courses • You don’t have space for dual credit courses • You do not want to and/or have the technology to participate in online courses • It’s a great opportunity for high school students to get a real taste of college life!

  21. FastTrack Tuition • How much does FastTrack cost the district? • Regular tuition rates • The school decides which students are eligible to participate and how many courses they can take • Example: only recommended seniors can take one course per semester • Example: juniors and seniors can take two courses per semester

  22. Current FastTrack Schools • Laquey High School • Waynesville Education Center • Hollister High School • Table Rock Campus • Ozark High School • Richwood Valley Campus
