We have added several new courses over the last couple of years including: Introduction to Computer Science, Competitive Fitness, Topics in Biomedical Sciences, Topics in the American Revolution, World Religions, Holocaust, Forensics, Creative Writing/Film as Literature, Topics in Philosophy, International English Grammar, Marine Biology, and Professional Math.

FAQ's: 

DUAL CREDIT COURSES

Greenwood instructors have been teaching upper level courses at the collegiate level for years, and now students will have the option of receiving college credit for those courses.  Below are the courses that we will be offering Dual Credit through Missouri State University. 

Advanced Chemistry (CHM 160/161), Advanced Physics (PHY 123), Pre-Calculus I and II (MTH 136 and 138), Advanced Biology (BIO 120/121), English III (ENG 110), English IV (Fall-ENG 200 Spring-ENG 210), and Anatomy & Physiology (BMS 110) Advanced Earth Science (GLG 110) U.S. History (HST 121-Fall HST 122-Spring)

Process

  • Students will be given Dual Credit Applications in class. 

  • The cost is $70 per credit hour (discounted rate).

  • Students must turn in their application and money before the deadline to receive credit. 

  • It is DUAL credit, so the grades and credits they will receive go on their college AND high school transcript.  Their grade WILL factor into their High School GPA.

  • This is a very exciting opportunity for our students!

OTC & Internships

We are also forming a partnership with OTC and their Career Center.  If you are interested please contact Mrs. Ewing at 417-836-5950. 

Internships are based typically at school, on campus, or we encourage our interns to work in field of their study at local businesses and companies.
