Parent & Family Support

Starting college is a major transition — for both students and their families. Our program is here to support scholars with this transition and understand that many of our students may have non-academic roles and responsibilities on top of their high school course work. Many of our scholars are learning time management and learning to prioritize their academic life for future career goals. To learn more about your student’s commitment to dual enrollment, please see the information and resources below.

Your scholar’s dedication

• 1 unit = 3 hours of work per week

FERPA

• Under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), the college is only permitted to communicate directly with the student regarding their records and accounts.
• Faculty and staff are only allowed to speak directly with the student about their educational records. In certain cases, students can grant special permission for family members to access specific information.

Parent/Guardian Tips to Aid Success

• Review the course syllabus with your student
• Recognize that your parental role as related to their education shifts from primary advocate to secondary advocate when your student is enrolled in college courses.
• Encourage independence in problem solving. Allow your student the opportunity to solve any academic concerns. 
• Assist in developing time management skills. 
• Understand that a straight A high school student may make their first C in a college level course
• Remind your student to check college email and Canvas daily
