Are you interested in Dual Enrollment with Career and College Promise? Sign up to meet with Ms. Jackson. Dual-enrollment is for current juniors and seniors only for Spring and Summer 2025. Meetings will be virtual and on Mondays and Fridays until Oct 28, 2024. Please use the enrollment steps to start verifying eligibility. If you have questions, email Ms. Jackson.

If you are having a tech issue, please fill out the Tech Issue Form. This will help issues be addressed as quickly as possible and help us keep up with our record keeping since there are only two of us handling these issues. Emails are harder to keep up with and do not leave a paper trail that everyone can access.

If you are having a Teams issue is please fill out the Teams Issue form. These issues are harder for us to troubleshoot in-house, but we are sending these request to the district for support.

Both of these forms are linked on the Tech Help page, which all students and parents have access to through links on all canvas pages and the CMVS website.

Please utilize these forms rather than emailing teachers and staff.
