ATTENTION Dual Enrollment Students: Students who have not attended their IRSC class for the spring 2025 semester will be withdrawn from the class for non-attendance. Please note this will result in a grade of W (for withdrawal) on your permanent high school and college record. Additionally, students who have withdrawn from an IRSC class will not be permitted to continue with any additional IRSC coursework until the class in question is retaken successfully. Students retaking a class due to a withdrawal (or failure) during the fall or spring semesters will be responsible for the tuition associated with the retake.
Reminder, families! All schools and District offices will be closed on Monday, January 20, in observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.
Classes will resume on Tuesday, January 21.
Join us in celebrating Dr. King’s legacy at the Martin Luther King Jr. Parade and Celebration hosted by StuartLife - The City of Stuart, Florida. Watch for our incredible students and staff participating in the event!
