Program Description
This program provides students with a college
preparatory program that combines high school and college in a supportive, yet
rigorous educational environment. Through the partnership between the
Community College of Baltimore County and Baltimore County Public Schools,
students will have the opportunity to simultaneously earn a high school diploma and an Associate of Arts in General Studies degree or up to 60 credits
toward a Bachelor’s degree, which may be eligible for reciprocal credit at a four-year college or university. Students
will earn credits through coursework completed at both the high school campus
and/or at the community college campus. College credits are tuition free,
and students are provided textbooks for their classes.

Bio: My name is Mrs. Bennett Jackson, but I still go by Mrs. Bennett because I was a Bennett for 33 years and…I like it! I am the proud Coordinator of the Early College Program at WHS, and this is my second year as a Woodlawn Warrior. Before joining the WHS family, I worked as a Consulting (Mentor) Teacher, and a Spanish Teacher/Department Chair – all in BCPS buildings. I’m also a proud BCPS Alum (The Randallstown Rams are always in my heart).
When I’m not working, I love spending time with my husband, daughter, and loved ones. I also love cooking, reading, and pretending I am an interior designer.
