Enrichment and Electives

In all core academic classes, we make every effort to differentiate the curriculum and to maximize relevancy, interests, and engagement. In addition to these core liberal arts subjects and University of California A-G requirements, we create a plethora of opportunities for students to find a natural place to engage ideas and skills and to explore their world.
