Off Campus Course Policy

 
OFF CAMPUS COURSE POLICY FOR THE PERFORMING AND FINE ARTS ACADEMY
 

In general, students are required to take all courses for graduation credit through the Performing and Fine Arts Academy. Students of the Performing and Fine Arts Academy may request permission to take courses for graduation credit outside of the Performing and Fine Arts Academy under the following conditions:

  1. The course requested is not offered at the Performing and Fine Arts Academy.
  2. The course requested is only offered as a single section and conflicts with another course offered that is also only a single section (i.e. Modern III and AP Calculus).

Students requesting the opportunity to take a course outside the Academy must complete an Off Campus Course Permission Form from the Counseling Office and submit for administrative approval.  Administrative approval must be granted before a student can receive credit for the course. 

 

Approval may NOT be granted if an equivalent course is being offered at PFAA.

 

Natomas Charter School offers two pathways for students who wish to take college courses while enrolled in high school: Facilitated Dual Enrollment and Concurrent Enrollment. Per state law, students may take up to a total of 11 college units per grading term.
