FRAMEWORKS

The DVC Frameworks identify the competencies that students will have the opportunity to learn in a four-year time span. 


Articulation Agreements

State articulation agreements are a uniform and consistent way for students in our DVC program to enroll in any Massachusetts community college and be awarded credits for work completed at Chicopee Comprehensive High School. Our DVC program has additional local articulation agreements with HCC and Elms College, which recognize credits beyond the standard 3 credit state recognition. 

Additionally, our DVC program has a dual enrollment agreement with the Elms College. 

These agreements allow for a seamless continuation of education for our students.
