Secondary School Program

The Middle College High School Program was developed by New York State Department of Education to respond to many factors affecting school district leadership related to poor academic achievement levels among students. To be eligible a secondary school must demonstrate that there is an identified need among students who are at risk to drop out of school or who have not completed high school.

To receive credit towards college entrance requirements students must:

• Be at least age thirteen (13) years old

• Score a minimum score on a prescribed test or pass a course

• Have been enrolled continuously for at least three (3) months within a calendar year

Secondary school students are required to attend class as specified by the Middle College High School Principal. Depending on their educational needs they may also be assigned additional support services.

The Middle College High School Program includes courses designed to prepare students as high school graduates and serve as transitional experiences toward higher education. The program requires about one hundred fifty hours per semester or approximately two hundred sixty hours per year.

Middle College High School Courses Eligibility Requirements

A middle school student enrolled full-time in any New York State public middle school can participate in the program provided that they meet all criteria below:

• Students must be eighteen (18) years old or older by September first

• Students must be currently enrolled full time as a middle school student at another New York State public middle school.

• Middle college high schools enroll students from grades six through twelve each year.
