Puente is a four-year UC sponsored academic program focused on increasing the number of students enrolling in a four year university. Students take an accelerated 9th and 10th grade sequence of college prep English integrated with Mexican American/Latino and other multicultural literature, then join our Seminar elective course in 11th and 12th grade.
