Duplin County Schools offer opportunities to students, such as the Duplin Agribusiness and Health Science Academies, that empower us to take ownership of our learning and connect us with others in the process. At DECHS, I love having the flexibility to work on assignments on my own time. That allows me to manage my schedule and be able to study in ways that I learn best. But that does not mean I am doing it alone. There is always the option to collaborate with classmates or brainstorm ideas with teachers. Whether it is independent study time or group projects, Duplin Early College empowers us to take ownership of our learning and connect with others in the process.

"The best part of Duplin Early College High School for me has been the incredible environment and the opportunities I’ve been given. The environment of excellence pushed me way outside of my comfort zone, but in the best way possible. From attending Governor’s School, participating in BETA club, taking classes with Arizona
State University to my internship with Amazon, I found myself getting involved in leadership roles individually that were game changers for me. Thanks to the amazing support from teachers and counselors, I have really come into my own and found success in ways I never thought possible. Duplin Early College High School is not just about classes; it is about pushing boundaries and achieving excellence. Here, being challenged is not the exception, it is the norm."
