What Early College is all
About
The mission of the Floresville Independent School District
is to prepare you for a prosperous life.
The Floresville
Early College
is one way we can deliver on that promise.
At FISD our student’s last two years of high school are
considered their first two years of college.
The only difference is the price and location. It is free and you
don’t have to leave home.
The Floresville Early
College offers two
different paths designed to prepare every student for the workplace of
the 21st Century.
Whether your child’s goal is to knock out the first two years of
college basics or attain an associate’s degree in a high wage
certification program, from here it’s possible.
FISD and the Floresville
Economic Development Corporation have teamed up with the Alamo Community
College District to provide a world class education for our students.
Certifications in business, aerospace manufacturing, nursing,
media broadcasting, culinary arts, information technology, and others
will be matched with global corporations to provide internships where
students earn credit, experience, and insight into a specific field of
study between students junior and senior year.
Companies like Lockheed Martin and others are excited about
matching our incredible kids with 21st century skills.
At FISD we also
recognize the importance of instilling the core ethical values of
respect, responsibility, caring, trustworthiness, citizenship, and
fairness in the education of our children. President Theodore Roosevelt
once said that to educate a man in mind and not morals is to create a
menace to society. The Floresville Early
College will match our
National award winning character education program with college prep to
foster an environment where students are encouraged to be both smart and
good. After all, companies
look for the values and work ethic of an employee just as much as their
skill level.
Welcome to the Floresville Independent
School District’s Early College,
where we will prepare your children for a prosperous life.
