Secondary Technical Center for High School Students
SouthArk offers 5 Career and Technical programs available to high school juniors and seniors attending Union County High Schools, as well as the Arkansas Virtual Academy. Students participating in these programs are considered "dual credit," meaning they receive both high school and college credit simultaneously. In addition, tuition and books are provided by SouthArk at no cost to the student. 10th and 11th grade students can register for classes during their spring semester. Interested students should visit with their high school counselors about registering.
