It's official. Rockdale Career Academy students in the early childhood education and public safety pathways will now be able to earn college credit through a venture with Dekalb Technical College. "We've set a curriculum initiative with courses at the secondary level similar or identical to courses at the post-secondary level so there's no need for high school students to duplicate a class when they get to college," said Roger Ivey, RCA's Career, Technical & Agricultural Education Coordinator.
