| Description |
Developed in 1997, the
Two Plus Two Plus Two college transition program
is a partnership between Hopi Junior/Senior
High School, Northland Pioneer College, and
Northern Arizona University. The program recruits
junior and senior high school students to
enroll in classes (including distance learning
courses) that offer concurrent 20 college
level credits. Upon graduation, students enrolled
in Two Plus Two Plus Two can earn up to thirty
transferable credits to any state or out-of-state
accredited community college or university.
The Program has led to a growing demand for
math and science courses by students within
the school and to increased college enrollment
(forty-five percent of this year’s graduating
class will attend two or four year institutions
of higher education). Two Plus Two Plus Two
is helping Hopi students attain advanced educational
degrees and, in so doing, is empowering them
with technological and academic skills that
they can bring back to the rural reservation. |
