During the spring semester, college counseling begins for 11th graders. LAS attributes this success to our belief that students flourish in a comfortable, supportive environment where healthy student-faculty relationships augment an individualized rigorous schedule. Students in our classrooms are required to be involved in class discussion, and the classes themselves involve frequent student-teacher interaction. This develops verbal and analytical skills as well as creative thinking. Diploma requirements are defined according to credits earned in specific subjects of study.
Students earn a single credit for every course they take.
In order to graduate, they must accumulate a minimum number of credits in each subject area. Students are also tested in mathematics for accurate placement. Previous course credits are appropriately transferred to our system.
