  TEC-Sponsored Online Courses
  In conjunction with member school districts, The Education Collaborative (TEC), is offering a variety of online enrichment courses during the 2010-2011 school year at a cost of $300. per course. Enrollment costs are the responsibility of the student.    

  Completing course requirements occurs outside of the school day and is not part of a student’s daily school schedule.  Students receive elective credit upon earning a passing grade.  Online TEC-sponsored courses do not fulfill DSHS graduation requirements and are not factored into a student’s GPA, unless the course is specifically pre-approved by the Headmaster.   

  To register for any of these online courses, please make an appointment to meet with Ms. Kinsella in the Guidance Office between Monday March 8_th and Friday March 26_th.    Tuition in the amount of $300 per course is due at the time of registration.  Checks can be made payable to the Dover Sherborn Regional School District.  Please note that the $300 registration fee is non-refundable unless TEC opts to cancel the course.
  For more information regarding this initiative please contact: TEC at 781 326 2473.
