A total of 174 students are participating in dual enrollment through USD 475. Reginald Eggleston, Superintendent of Schools, said this the third year that the District has been able to encourage students to take advantage of the program. "For the last three years we've actually been using some of our grant funds in order to pay for tuition so students can take advantage of it. 

Eggleston said the District wants to level the playing field and give all students regardless of their economic background. "So we're seeing more and more students take advantage of this and we're seeing more and more students experience success which is ultimately what we want."
