Johnson Bill For Tenth Grade College Courses Passes WA House

Tenth-grade students in Washington may be able to take college courses in high school under a bill that cleared the State House on Monday.  The state’s “College in the High School” program is currently offered to high school students in 11th and 12th grades.   College courses are offered for a fee that is substantially less than regular tuition, and the courses can eventually apply to a degree.  It’s become so popular that high school sophomores want to have a chance to also enroll, and 14th District Representative Norm Johnson authored the bill to make that happen.  The measure passed the House with a vote of 96-1.   It now goes to the Senate for further consideration.
