Off-Campus Summer Coursework Approval for Incoming Students

Please note that off-campus coursework is neither required nor recommended for most students.  Students at CCA can meet and exceed graduation and college requirements by completing on-campus courses during the academic year.  If you desire to take an off-campus course, the Off Campus Permission Form can be turned in to ccenrollment@sduhsd.net (please indicate Off Campus Course in the subject line) or dropped off at the front office either prior to the 3/17/25 course selection deadline or during the window of 5/19-5/23 only.  If your form is not approved, counselors will contact you within one week of the form being turned in.  Students are encouraged to talk to their current middle school counselor (or high school counselor if transferring from another district high school) about whether off-campus coursework is the best option for them.  Current 8th graders cannot begin any high school coursework prior to their final day of eighth grade or it will not be able to be posted to the student's high school transcript.

In order to best serve our current students, CCA counselors are only available to provide guidance to incoming students on our course selection nights on 3/12 - 3/13 from 4:00 - 6:30.  To sign up to attend an optional course selection night with counselors, please fill out the Optional CCA Course Selection Nights form.  Talk to your current teachers or counselor if you have questions about which courses are appropriate for you.

In order to attend CCA, all enrollment documents including your course selection contracts must be received by Friday, March 17, 2025 at 4pm.  If for any reason, you do not complete enrollment you will forfeit your spot at CCA and you will be enrolled at your boundary high school.  Enrolled students must also attend CCA at the start of the school year or will forfeit their spot at the academy.  If you do not plan to attend CCA, please notify the Registrar, Ms. Caroline Moroney at ccenrollment@sduhsd.net.
