成功的第一个

We understand that college can be challenging academically. Donnelly’s 成功的第一个 course helps students who test below the level for college readiness gain strong English language, reading and writing skills to be successful in college classes.

加速

成功的第一个 加速 is offered in conjunction with EN111-Composition I, which prepares students for the demands of college-level reading and writing assignments. 学生 learn to communicate effectively in written form, read for purpose and comprehension, use standard English grammar and sentence structure, 使用预写, peer review and editing techniques in essays.

How to Participate in 成功的第一个 

LPL外围网址 prides itself on an “Open Door” policy which accepts all students who have graduated from an accredited high school or an equivalency program such as the GED. To decide placement into college level courses, all students are administered the Accuplacer Placement Test if they do not have ACT scores. Those students who fall below the cut-off of 100 level courses are referred to 成功的第一个 for possible placement. Once the Testing Center Coordinator has the student’s scores, the student is referred to the Director of 成功的第一个 to determine which program would be most appropriate for the students. All programs are intended to last one-semester as preparation for college level courses.

For 成功的第一个 students, 项目L.O.U.D. (Literacy Outreach in Urban Districts) pairs Donnelly students with at-risk elementary students at public and Catholic schools in the urban core of 堪萨斯 City, 堪萨斯. The Donnelly students read age-appropriate books to the elementary students and also serve as culturally responsive role models, giving minority and low-income students the opportunity to interact with college students. 项目L.O.U.D. reinforces the idea that reading is a lifelong skill and that going to college is a goal within reach for these elementary school students.
