It was a wonderful opportunity for everyone to relax, enjoy lunch, and socialize before heading off for summer break.

Surry Early College High School, located on the Dobson Campus of Surry Community College, and Yadkin Early College High School, located at Surry Community College’s Yadkin Center, both have a record number of super seniors for the current school year.
Super seniors at the early colleges are fifth year high school students who are dually enrolled at Surry Community College. They have enough credits to graduate high school after four years, but through their high schools, they can acquire additional college credits and oftentimes earn associate degrees and certificates in their fourth and fifth years of high school.
There is no cost to the student for these classes. Even though students may earn a high school diploma at the end of their fourth year, fifth-year students get even more opportunities for college classes and programs for free.
