Tri-County Early College offers students the opportunity to engage in an accelerated, project-based learning environment through which they can earn their high school diploma in four years and a two-year college degree from Tri-County Community College in four or five years. As students of both Tri-County Early College and Tri-County Community College, successful students exhibit motivation, self-discipline, adaptability, collaboration, respect, empathy, and learner’s mindset. While at TCEC, students work with teachers and peers to develop the competencies of the NC Portrait of a Graduate. These competencies and the core principles help students develop skills that promote success in college and career. The faculty, staff, and administration expect that students fully invest in this opportunity with good attendance, exemplary behavior, and dedication to personal growth.
