Imagine earning a college degree before you even graduate from high school. At a time when traditional four-year college tuition and student loan debt is skyrocketing, many students are doing just that at DCCC—via high school dual enrollment. While high school graduations haven’t yet happened this spring, Thatcher Respicio and Marcella Ballisty, and more than 30 other local high school students, earned their associate degrees from DCCC last week. Thatcher, of Downingtown East High School, majored in Engineering while Marcella, of Downingtown West High School, earned a Liberal Arts degree. They successfully juggled high school and college studies with their high school clubs and activities, including—in Thatcher’s case—varsity hockey.

Both are headed to four-year universities next fall as sophomores. Thatcher will pursue mechanical engineering at Georgia Tech, and Marcella plans to major in aerospace engineering at Penn State University. CBS 3 Philadelphia TV reporter and anchor Joe Holden caught up with the two at DCCC’s Commencement last week for a great interview!
