Previous Outcomes

Clay County has had a positive working relationship with ERAU and the agreement benefits the students of the district by allowing them to earn both college credits and high school credits.  These courses will allow students to progress towards a post-secondary certificate or degree.  In addition, this program is unique to the Clay County programs in that the aeronautical theme is highlighted.

Expected Outcomes

Clay County students will continue to provide college level courses on the high school sites.  It is expected that the total number of students in this program will increase from one year to the next. Enrollment for the 2017-18 school year are:
