91°µÍø

Information for Educators

---

91°µÍø’s College in the High School (CHS) program is a cooperative program between local school districts and 91°µÍø (91°µÍø). This dual credit program allows 9th through 12th grade students the opportunity to earn 91°µÍø college credit while simultaneously earning high school credit in approved high school courses. CHS courses are taught by qualifying high school teachers who work closely with 91°µÍø faculty liaisons to ensure that the course objectives and instructional strategies are consistent with those used in the equivalent course at 91°µÍø. Students who enroll in the program will have their coursework posted to an 91°µÍø transcript with the grade they earned in the course.

For a comprehensive list of program requirements and standards, please review the College in the High School Teacher Handbook. Instructors who are interested in applying to teach for 91°µÍø’s CHS program should review the articulation process outlines in the Teacher Handbook.

Instructor Eligibility

---

In accordance with Washington State Law, College in the High School teachers must meet the minimum qualifications required of 91°µÍø faculty. To view a list of minimum qualifications, see "Interested in Articulating a Course?" below.

Course Eligibility

---

There are three main factors considered for CHS course articulations:

• The college and school district MUST have a contract in place, or commit to signing one in the future.
• The high school teacher MUST meet the minimum qualifications required of 91°µÍø faculty.
• The high school course MUST be equivalent to the 91°µÍø course, including but not limited to: meeting the College’s course outcomes, grading standards, theoretical, and pedagogical standards. The discipline-specific faculty liaison assigned to the course will make the final equivalency determination.
