TARRANT CO COLLEGE SOUTH/FORT WORTH COLLEGIATE H S

Tarrant County College (TCC) South/Fort Worth Collegiate High School is a specialized educational partnership located on the TCC South Campus in Fort Worth, Texas. Operating as an early college high school, the program is designed to create a seamless transition between secondary and higher education. It provides students with a unique academic environment where they can pursue their high school diploma while simultaneously earning college credits, often graduating with an associate degree or a significant number of transferable college hours by the time they finish their senior year.

The school is defined by its rigorous curriculum and its focus on college readiness and career preparation. By being embedded directly within a community college setting, students gain early exposure to the expectations of higher education, access to college-level facilities, and the support of both high school faculty and college professors. This model is intended to remove barriers to post-secondary success, providing students—particularly those who might be the first in their families to attend college—with a cost-effective and supportive pathway toward completing higher education degrees and entering the workforce.
