Students who want to accelerate their coursework to achieve their academic goals may apply for Credit by Demonstrated Mastery (CDM). The CDM process allows students to earn credit in a particular course by demonstrating proficiency in the subject without completing the classroom instruction. All North Carolina students in grades 9-12 are eligible to apply for Credit by Demonstrated Mastery in the available courses. For more information visit my website CDM page of the AIG Website

CDM Student Application Deadline is September 9, 2025 and must be turned in to me (office 405 or through your regular counselor). The application link is below.
