NRM Early College and Center for ITI HS follow the Cooperative Innovative High Schools model allowing student the opportunity to graduate from high school and community college with an associate's degree in 5 years.  Both NRM Early College and CITI HS work with Nash Community College to provide their students with the classes necessary for their chosen degree.

The Nash-Rocky Mount Early College High School (NRM-ECHS) is a cooperative innovative high school in partnership with Nash Community College (NCC). Students who are accepted to the NRM-ECHS are eligible for three degree options at NCC: Associate in Arts, Associate in Science, or Associate in Engineering. All three of these degree options are aligned to the college transfer pathway for students to transfer to a four-year college or university with two years of college credit. NRM-ECHS students are also eligible to complete certificate pathways in addition to the Associate Degree that align with their coursework and Bachelor Degree Plans. All students at the NRM-ECHS are expected to graduate with a high school diploma, an Associate Degree (Arts, Sciences, or Engineering), and possibly a business/industry certification as preparation to entering a four-year college or university to complete a Bachelor's degree program.
