Early College Opportunities

RHS students have the opportunity to apply to the Early College of Macomb (ECM) during their 10th grade year.  All 10th grade families are mailed a brochure in December from the ECM with information about the program, dates for informational meetings, and information about the application process.  Generally, ECM applications must be submitted online to ECM by early February each year (check the ECM website for exact dates).  Sophomore families who need additional information about ECM can visit the ECM website (linked below) or students may check in with their academy counselor.
