Phone Number: 850-892-1270 ext. 4416
Updates/Changes about Dual Enrollment:
- NWFSC *NEW* Dual Enrollment Registration "Dynamic" Form: Dual Enrollment students will continue to use the new, user-friendly form to complete when registering for Summer/Fall 2023 classes. If returning dual enrollment parent/guardians are unable to remember or log into Dynamic Forms (parent approval account for dual enrollment forms) it’s highly recommended that you attend the dual enrollment with Ms. McKie to get assistance as she is not able to override your approval in the enrollment process due to technical issues. Not being able to log into dynamic forms to approval your child’s dual enrollment form will significantly delay and will affect their enrollment into fast filling NWFSC classes. NWFSC will not make accommodations or overload classes due to enrollment issues.
Added bonuses with Dynamic Forms...
** Students are able to track their form (registration, add/drop, or withdrawal
form) in the process.
** Students are able to send reminders to parents/guardians to sign forms.
** Student information self-populates on all forms.
- NWFSC Deadline Date: see "Summer/Fall '23 Registration Timeline below", deadlines have been pushed up this semester from previous semesters.
- Florida Civics Literacy Exam(FLCE) -- DE students who are planning on graduating from NWFSC with an AA degree, must pass the FCLE Exam. Passing the FCLE exam is not a high school graduation requirement, but is a requirement for an AA degree.
- NWFSC will be live streaming into their on site NWFSC Computer Lab at WHS. We will have four classes streamed during the school day for our students. The four classes include Natural Disasters, Intro to Humanities, College Success and Practical Application of Math. See Ms. McKie for more details about NWFSC streaming classes.
McKie's Reminders:
- After the completion of your second semester of dual enrollment, it is highly advised that you see a NWFSC Academic Navigator for advisement on your path to an AA/AS degree PRIOR to meeting with Ms. McKie for course approval EACH semester. Please do not solely rely on DegreeWorks as your only advisement on your path to earning an AA/AS degree at NWFSC.
- You need to have passing placement scores (Pert, ACT, SAT) in all areas by the completion of the 12th credit hour (approximately 4 classes). Failure to obtain passing placement scores by this time will make you ineligible for dual enrollment.
- Quarterly Class Meetings with Administration are a requirement. This is our primary source of communication.
- 3 Strike Rule is in effect --Upon the third withdrawal(W), "D" or "F" grade earned at NWFSC you will not be eligible to participate in dual enrollment.
- If you need assistance, please contact me. Do not wait until it's too late to do something.
