A Message from Mrs. Bennett, AACC Transition Advisor
It’s time for students to consider enrolling in an AACC class for the spring semester
through our Early College Access Program (ECAP). Registration is now open for the
spring term which begins on January 21, 2026. Eligible students may take college
classes at no cost. These college credits can be applied to a degree at AACC or
transferred to a 4-year college. Students may take classes in-person at AACC or
online. We will offer one spring class for seniors at SRHS-Personal & Community
Health. Students should see Mrs. Bennett to register for this class. For more

Bennett at dbennett@aacc.edu
