Credit Acceleration Course Offerings

Credit Acceleration Courses are available for current high school students interested in taking a course for the first time for original course credit. These acceleration courses contain the full course content and require a greater time commitment from the student.

*All courses are 1 credit through ExCEL unless otherwise noted.
