Welcome to the Early College Program at WHS!

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

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 fifth 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.

Hello! My name is Diane Marie Crockett, Resource Teacher for the Early College Program. I worked at the Community College of Baltimore County (CCBC) for the past 22 years as the Director of Admissions. I enjoy providing information and services to students to help them discover the numerous educational, career, and workforce opportunities and pathways. Traveling, spending time with family, and watching sports are my favorite pastime activities.
