There are number of reasons to take a class outside of Northgate. Before signing up for a class, meet with you school counselor to determine the best path for your needs. All classes required for graduation must be taken at Northgate.
HOW and WHY?
Advancement (to get into a higher level course in the following academic year) - transcripts must be submitted to Northgate by August 1
Enrichment (for personal interest; taking this course does not impact student's schedule for next year)
Students are NOT allowed to take courses needed for remediation through any of these online programs. All remediation classes must be made up at Northgate during the credit recovery class or during summer school.
Students taking a summer class need to turn in their transcripts by August 1 to get the class added to your Northgate Transcript (if applicable).
Reminder: if you are taking a class that Northgate offers, you will not receive any high school credit for that class.
