Graduates from the Academy should be planning to pursue a college or university track to obtain a degree in some discipline of computer science. College credit for Advanced Placement courses is available upon passing the appropriate AP College Board Exam(s). Universities vary in their recognition of AP credits, therefore, the number of available credit hours will depend upon the policies of the specific university the graduate plans to attend.
Advanced Placement (AP) college credit is available for students who pass AP tests in Calculus, Computer Science, or Physics.
Academy students must be high school sophomores, juniors or seniors. Students can attend up to three (3) years.
Up to three school years
Daytime classes, part-time only: Monday — Friday
A total of 15 courses (5 math, 3 science and 7 computer science) are taught in the Academy. However, a 3 years student will be able to complete only 12 of those courses. Therefore, the total hours available in the course list exceed the total number required hours for the full Computer Science Academy major. The exact course sequence will be determined by previously taken math and science courses, as well as the student's career and education goals.
