At Jackson-Milton, we offer special classes for high-school students who have high enough grades and that also want to get ahead of their college careers. These classes are called CCP which stands for College Credit Plus, what this is, is in high school you can get college credits so you can get out of college faster and be in less debt by the end of your schooling.
