High schools not yet up-to-speed on dual enrollment; cannot offer physical education, art and several other courses face-to-face; will offer over 100 8-week courses beginning October 12
Dr. Lisa Rhine
Based on temporary data, Yavapai Community College is showing only a ten percent reduction in enrollment. President Dr. Lisa Rhine explained to the District Governing Board at its September meeting that one the reasons for the reduction had to do with high schools just opening and figures for dual enrollment are yet to come. She also noted that courses in physical education, art and others could not be offered because they required a face-to-face experience.
The College hopes to make up the enrollment reduction by offering over 100 eight week courses that will be available in this semester. These courses begin on October 12.
