BOSTON - Boston College High School’s plan to add grades 7 and 8 is a fresh sign of the growing concern that parents and educators have for middle schoolers in public and parochial systems, local educators say.

In particular, early college high schools are designed to enable underrepresented students to graduate in four to five years with a high school diploma and up to an Associate’s degree or sufficient credit to enter a Bachelor’s degree program as a junior.
It suggests that costs for early college high schools appear to be on par with those of regular public high schools, within significant limitations to comparing such different institutions and the variety of school designs emerging in the initiative.
Fortunately, programs for college credit in high school are no longer limited to elite schools, and students from a wide range of backgrounds and with diverse accomplishments are showing that the academic challenge of college courses is an inspiration not a barrier.
