Expanded Options allows Astoria High School students (16 and older) the opportunity to take classes at Clatsop Community College. Astoria School District will pay for tuition and fees - students are responsible for the cost of books and any other expenses.
Step One: Click here to look at Clatsop Community College's Fall course offerings and select classes you're interested in. Please note: ASD will only pay tuition and fees for courses that are NOT already offered at AHS. For example, Calculus is already offered at AHS, and would not be paid for by Expanded Options.
Step Two: Contact Meredith Payton (mpayton@astoriak12.org) the courses that you are interested in taking. Meredith will work with you to navigate the enrollment process with Clatsop Community College and coordinate between AHS and CCC.
Important information about Expanded Options at Clatsop Community College:
Students are responsible for ensuring they are aware of their class start dates and other important deadlines and information.
Students dropping classes after drop deadlines may be responsible for all costs related to their registered courses. Additionally, if a student does not pass the class with a "C" or higher, they will owe Astoria School District the cost of the course and will no longer be permitted to take classes through Expanded Options.
Courses taken at Clatsop Community College will be transcribed on a student's AHS transcript and will count towards a student's cumulative GPA.
Expanded Options students have access to all CCC services while enrolled, which includes library, tutoring services, and Patriot Hall facilities, when open.
Please visit AHS Student Services if you have questions about Expanded Options at CCC.
