SERVING THE 22ND LEGISLATIVE DISTRICT

The Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ facilitates hundreds of programs in communities across the state. Below are a few that operate in your district. Programs active as of January 2023.

Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ in the High School

Through the program, high school sophomores, juniors and seniors can complete Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ courses — and earn college credit — in their own classrooms with their own teachers. Teachers are approved and trained by Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ faculty to teach official Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ courses using Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ curriculum, activities, texts, tests and grading scales. Participating students can earn college credits at a fraction of the cost, and these credits are accepted by most colleges and universities across Washington and around the country. Partner high schools can offer Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ coursework in computer science, math, science, world languages, humanities and social sciences. .ÌýÌý
