Concurrent Enrollment
Conifer High School offers concurrent enrollment through Red Rocks Community College. Classes are taught by the high school teacher and college credit is earned through RRCC at no cost to the student if the course is successfully completed with a grade of “C” or higher.
The college credit earned will automatically be recorded on the student’s official college transcript.
Some courses that offer college credit require specific prerequisites. Prerequisites can be satisfied by either submitting qualifying ACT, SAT, Accuplacer or other equivalent placement test scores or by taking the required course. All courses require instructor approval.
