Jamie is currently enrolled in the Early College High School Program, a five year program that will give her an associates degree as well as her high school diploma. She is so happy to have this opportunity to be enrolled in these programs and to have taken the NCRC that will help advance her future and give her better opportunities to succeed.
Yoselyn felt that the NCRC was uncomplicated and did not give her the anxiety and pressure that the OAKS exams did. She is proud o her accomplishment with the NCRC and because she is now able to obtain her diploma, she is planning on continuing her education to become a radiation therapist.
