A new Nevada law will require all public and charter high schools to partner with a community college to offer dual-credit coursework beginning next year. Gov. Brian Sandoval signed Senate Bill 19 on Wednesday at a ceremony for dual-credit students at Western Nevada College. It is one of his priority pieces legislation this session. The programs aim to prepare teenagers for college and the workforce with coursework that counts toward graduation requirements at both secondary and post-secondary institutions. The Governor says the law will minimize cost barriers and other challenges that may be preventing students from pursuing dual-credit coursework. The bill received unanimous support at the Legislature.
