College in the Schools

logo College in the Schools Program (CIS) at Central Lakes College is a partnership with local high schools that gives high schools an opportunity to strengthen their academic course offerings while providing high school juniors or seniors a jump start on earning college credit. Students experience the academic rigor of college curriculum and strengthen their study skills in a high school environment. Upon high school graduation, students who have participated in the CIS program make a smooth transition to a college setting.
