Some students have the opportunity to take courses on the local college level, but that is usually reserved for elective or enrichment type courses.
Some students may choose to take a course at a local college, but that is set through the Ohio Department of Education and the school. While those courses receive credit, the actual grade is not averaged into their GPA.
