High School Curriculum

Courses Specifically Designed for High School Students

SCVCS uses the K¹²9¹² high school curriculum to serve our students in grades 9-12. The K¹²9¹² online high school environment blends the best features of the company's world-renowned K-8 learning environment—the elegant and research-driven design, the compelling interactivity, the ease of use of both online and offline content—with key features designed to make the high school experience successful, given the far more complex high school world of content, skills, and time management.

A Robust Catalog of Courses Meets the Needs of Diverse Learners

The K¹²9¹² High School Course Catalog is robust, offering more than 90 core, elective, and Advanced Placement® (AP®) courses. K¹²9¹² Math, Language Arts, Science, and History courses are offered in multiple versions to meet the needs of diverse learners with diverse goals. Up to four levels of World Languages are offered as well. Students can chart their own course, choosing from among the four levels of courses to match their aptitude and goals.

Four Versions of Core Subjects

With the K¹²9¹² high school curriculum, students can harness the power of individualized learning by choosing from the following four versions of Math, English, Science, and History courses:

  • K¹²9¹² Core courses are similar to the standard courses offered by many other programs. These courses meet all academic requirements for each course area for graduation as well as for potential admission into a wide range of colleges.
  • K¹²9¹² Comprehensive courses are designed for students entering with a strong foundational knowledge and aptitude in the subject area being covered, as well as solid study skills.
  • K¹²9¹² Honors courses hold students to a greater degree of accountability, and demand even greater independence and self-discipline than their Comprehensive counterparts.
  • K¹²9¹² Advanced Placement (AP®) courses are college-level courses that follow curriculum specified by the College Board. Like K¹² Honors courses, AP® courses require a greater degree of self-discipline for in-depth study of the subject.
