More Middle College Students than Ever!
Enrollment in Ivy Tech Classes Triples for the Spring Semester

December 22, 2008

Fountain Square Academy Middle College advisor Fumihiko Yuki reports that FSA’s enrollment of students in Ivy Tech classes has shot up from three students to ten for the spring semester.

“I’m very excited that we have ten students who will be taking 100-level – college-level – courses at Ivy Tech Community College next semester,” Yuki says. “We had only three students who were taking 100-level courses this semester and this is a big jump! I strongly believe that more and more students will follow them next year.”

Some of the classes our students will be taking include Intermediate College Algebra, Computer Information Systems, and English Composition. Each course is a college level course that results in three transferrable college credits. These classes are offered to Fountain Square Academy students free of charge, and transportation is provided to and from the Ivy Tech Community College campus on North Meridian Street.

“Fountain Square has been offering our students the opportunity to take free college courses for a couple years now, and it’s great to see that more and more students – and parents – are realizing how special an opportunity it is,” Yuki says. “Taking these classes and having ‘the college experience’ during high school can only benefit our students.”
