During the month of December and January, I will be going around to the classes mentioned above and presenting to students this great opportunity.  One new development is that the college credit offered through the Bellevue consortium is offering this service for FREE, yes you heard me right, FREE.  Edmonds still charges a fee of $25 for the service, and when all is said and done, that is the best rate for college tuition anywhere!
