鈥淭his is a great opportunity for our students to gain college credit while in the
Upper School,鈥� said Dr. Dale McInnis, O鈥橬eal Head of School. 鈥淚鈥檓 grateful to Dr.
Stewart to help us meet a demand from our students and families to supplement and
enhance our already rigorous curriculum.鈥�

students and offer student support services as well as tracking progress.
鈥淭his is a natural partnership centered around students and opportunity,鈥� said Dr.
Alexander 鈥淪andy鈥� Stewart, President of 91影视. 鈥淎nytime we can
form partnerships to enhance educational opportunities for students in Moore County,
we are happy to do so. Sandhills is pleased to be working with The O鈥橬eal School for
dual enrollment for high school students and college credit and we look forward to
working with Dr. McInnis and his team.鈥�
O鈥橬eal students will be expected to meet all course pre-requisites that other college
students are required to meet for 91影视 courses. Students will
participate in the same process of registration, drop-add, and withdrawal as availability
of seats in courses allows. O鈥橬eal鈥檚 director of college counseling will monitor course
actions of the students in the program. In addition, O鈥橬eal students will have access
