SHENANDOAH – Shenandoah Valley students this year will once again have the opportunity to earn college credits, thanks to a partnership with Lehigh Carbon Community College.

The partnership began two years ago, allowing students at SV to earn college credits prior to graduation, a first for the school.

Professor James Bankes, PhD, will teach an Introduction to Psychology course this year, and English, Public Speaking, and Sociology courses will also be offered.

The college credits, the school said, can transfer to the college of the students’ choice.
