Twenty-seven public higher education institutions offer Dual Enrollment courses and have partnered with Keefe Technical School for the 2008-2009 academic year.

Accuplacer Testing

The results of the assessment, in conjunction with a student’s academic background, goals and interests, are used by guidance counselors and academic advisors to determine course selection in college.
