Dual Enrollment Class

The second quarter has begun and the Cornerstone Dual Enrollment Class is still going on. The class is called Prepared to Launch. The class is about preparing the students for college and teaching the essential skills needed to excel in college. There’s a lot to learn from the class. It’s very helpful and the students feel like they are learning a lot. The information is useful for when they go to college. The students also get college credit hours for taking the class which they can then take to Cornerstone or another college and not have to take a class or be closer to the number of credits they need to graduate.

Shannon Pothoven is the professor of the class. All the students like her. She’s very nice and makes the class enjoyable even though it’s a longer class than usual. The class is once a week on Wednesday for 2 hours. The class is learning about time management and goal setting right now. The class is also reading the book, Power of Habit. The book is about how we do what we do and why.

The class also learned about their strengths by taking the strengths test. The class then learned how to use and understand their strengths. The students really enjoy the class and the professor. The Cornerstone Dual Enrollment Class is a great opportunity for the student and will help them prepare for college.
