| AAE high school diploma and GED preparation classes are offered during the traditional academic year starting September 10, 2012 and ending June 6, 2013. Classes offered include the required areas of English, social studies, life and physical science, mathematics, fine arts, languages and electives. Some elective credits may be granted for work experience. Prospective students must obtain official copies of transcripts for all academic work previously completed so that a realistic and accurate plan can be created to work toward a diploma or to prepare for the GED examination. Classes are generally offered late afternoon or evening. Students need to commit six hours per week for classes, instructional lab and homework in order to make reasonable progress toward a diploma to graduate. To graduate, the student must also pass the California Exit Examination (CAHSEE) |
