Move on When Ready

 

On April 29, 2009, Governor Sonny Perdue signed HB 149, "The Move on When Ready Act," which permits 11th and 12th grade students to leave their assigned high schools and attend postsecondary institutions full-time to earn course credit that will apply towards high school graduation and college.  The "Move on When Ready Act," is intended as another option(not a replacement) for 11th and 12th graders, in addition to other regular dual enrollment programs, residential programs, early college, career academies and charter schools.

Students interested in participating in the program will be required to meet the following criteria:

 

  • Be at least a high school junior or senior in a public high school
  • Have a 530 Critical Reading and 530 Math on the SAT

                                    or 

 

 

  • Have a 23 English and 22 Math on the ACT

 

                                  AND

 

  • Have a minimum High School Academic GPA of 3.5
