The Texan Counseling Department supports students in reaching their highest potential for a successful future through collaboration with students, families, staff and the community.

The Texan Counseling Department strives to inspire, motivate, and guide students on their journey to become empowered TEXANS for life.  Using a comprehensive counseling program, we will cultivate an environment that fosters life-long learning, resilience, leadership and integrity.

Exit Guidelines for Dual Credit and Dual Enrollment Courses

1. Dual Credit and Dual Enrollment withdraw dates vary by institution. It is important that you pay close attention to your institution’s guidelines for your withdraw decisions. In some cases you may be issued a WD (withdraw), WP (withdraw passing), WF (withdraw Failing) or other coding that will affect your college transcript. High School counselor (or designee) approval required.

2. Students who withdraw from a dual credit class for which there is a Honors or AP equivalent will be given the option of moving into those classes or into an on-level class. The withdrawal grade earned in the exited class will be substituted for assignments missed.

3. Students who wish to withdraw from a dual credit class for which there is no non-dual credit equivalent will be placed in another course for which they may or may not receive high school credit towards graduation.

4. All dual credit and OnRamps courses require tuition payment. Failure to pay your tuition prior to the school or college deadline will result in the student being automatically removed from the class.
