Typical Program of Studies
The curriculum of Paraclete High School is designed to provide every student with sufficient knowledge to enter college. The basic cirriculum, therefore, is college preparatory. Special attention is given to meeting the requirements for admission to the University of California system, so that those students who desire immediate entrance to a four year college are provided with adequate courses and course material to meet the requirements.
Students exhibiting superior academic ability may be placed in upper division science and math courses, irrespective to their present college intentions.
Since some students of lesser achievement are given the opportunity of entering Paraclete, the curriculum is designed to provide courses for remediation on the Freshman level when needed.
Each student at Paraclete High School normally attends six classes per day or 48 classes during a complete four years on the campus (six classes per day, twelve classes per year, 48 classes for four years).
