ACCESS

ACEESS header
ACCESS is the acronym for Alabama Connecting Classrooms, Educators, & Students Statewide. This program was designed to allow students to access advance diploma courses that they may not otherwise have access to. ACCESS allows students to take advanced placement (AP) classes. The goal as stated in the ACCESS website " is to create equity through additional educational offerings for all Alabama public high school students." There are several advantages to ACCESS. Some advantages are the instant expansion of course course offerings. Advanced diploma and advance level courses in areas such as foreign languages, electives, and high mathematics.

Every high school in the state of Alabama has an ACCESS lab. The program uses current technology to provide courses to students via the Internet and video conferencing. Students are offered supportive resources, such as interactive on-line chemistry labs. ACCESS opens up so many doors to students who would otherwise miss out. I am impressed with the website and all that Alabama has to offer to its students. I am glad to see that they care out the future of our students. ACCESS offers great learning opportunities for all!
