School Counseling Resources

Dual/Concurrent Courses

Central Wyoming College provides junior and senior students at DHS the opportunity to take dual and concurrent classes through Central Wyoming College at no cost. Some of the courses have pre-requisites for enrollment. College faculty teach the courses, and that allows for high school and college credit. Concurrent courses are taught by high school staff and allow for high school and college credit. Please see the school counselor for enrollment information.

Please visit CWC for more information about concurrent and dual enrollment.
