Welcome to Early College

It is our privilege to offer students a rigorous and supportive academic program of study that blends high school and college work with the goal that students will graduate with a high school diploma and an associate degree or 60 college credit hours toward a baccalaureate degree. It is a chance for students who may not otherwise consider attending college to earn 12 to 60 college hours. This opportunity will be offered free of charge through a partnership between Spring ISD and Lone Star College - North Harris, which will waive tuition and fees. 
What are the Benefits?
  • Opportunity to earn high school diploma and college degree simultaneously.
  • Students and families are provided ongoing support to ensure success.
  • Students and families save money on tuition costs.
  • Provides opportunities for students to earn higher wages.
