十分六合彩

Overview

Middle College at West 十分六合彩 College is an alternative program that offers a special opportunity to students who are seeking a more challenging academic program and who have the maturity and academic skills to successfully function in college level classes. Students are motivated to undertake independent research and to report their findings in both oral and written form. Students are seeking a wider choice of electives and are excited by the rigor and challenge of starting college classes and career exploration.

The program offers students a small class size with a rigorous academically focused environment. It is housed entirely on the West 十分六合彩 College campus. With over 35 clubs and athletic teams, students are actively involved in the extracurricular life at the college. Students receive a diploma from their original high school, and participate in their home school graduation ceremonies.

Under the guidance of their high school Middle College counselor, along with a West 十分六合彩 College counselor, students select from over 1,000 college classes that meet high school graduation requirements. These classes can be credited towards their college degree and transferred to UC, CSU or private schools. Students are enrolled in two (2) high school classes, as well as a minimum of six (6) and a maximum of eleven (11) college units per semester. Although not required for the Middle College Program, students may also enroll in two (2) courses in the winter and summer sessions.
