TVCC Vice President of Instruction Dr. Wendy Elmore welcomed the graduates, families and guests; Pastor Richard Dunn of the Kaufman Christian Help Center provided the invocation and benediction.

Since the late 1990s, high school students in the Trinity Valley Community College service area have been able to enroll in college-level courses while still in high school. As the state legislature has altered the rules though the years, now students of all grade levels in high school are eligible to take dual credit courses, as long as they meet the college’s enrollment requirements. The number of high school students receiving associate’s degrees and certificates has steadily increased over time, with the result that TVCC Dual Credit programs awarded 161 degrees and certificates to high school students during fall and spring graduation ceremonies held on December 14 and May 11.
