Dual Enrollment – Spring 2025

Pasco County Schools

What is Dual Enrollment? Dual enrollment is an acceleration program that allows students to take postsecondary coursework and simultaneously earn credit toward a high school diploma, a career certificate, an industry certification or an associate or baccalaureate degree at a Florida public or eligible private postsecondary institution.

Dual Enrollment Textbooks for Fall/Spring 2024-25:

• This is an important message concerning Dual Enrollment textbooks for Fall Term and for Spring Term. I’ve also attached the FAQ about Dual Enrollment textbooks to help with common questions.  PLEASE NOTE: THESE PROCEDURES HAVE CHANGED from previous terms!
  • If you have any Fall 2024 Dual Enrollment classes that included textbooks for Pasco eSchool or PHSC Dual Enrollment classes, please see the attached DE Textbook Flyer information for instructions for how to return the Fall 2024 Term textbook so that you do not get charged for it (Fall textbook return dates are December 9th, 11th, and 16th at Weightman Middle School).
  • If you are registered to take any Spring 2025 Term classes with Pasco eSchool or PHSC, please see the same attached DE Textbook Flyer for how to obtain your Spring 2025 Term textbook in time for the Spring term to start in January. (Spring textbook pickup dates are January 13th, 15th, and 22nd at Weightman Middle School).
    • NOTE: For the Spring 2025 Term, each college course has specific procedures that may be different from others so you will need to know your course number to find out how to get your textbooks whether they are hard copies or electronic. Please read the instructions carefully and be sure to follow them closely so you don’t miss any deadlines!

  MAKE SURE TO FOLLOW THE DUAL ENROLLMENT TEXTBOOK INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY FROM THE ATTACHED FLYER SINCE PROCEDURES HAVE CHANGED!
