Attention Parents of Students Taking AP Exams . . .

May 3-14 AP students will demonstrate that they are up to the challenge of rigorous, college-level course work by taking the AP exams. Students can begin purchasing their AP Exams February 8-26 for $86.00 per exam. Payments can be made in the ASB office before school, brunch and lunch. Purchases can also be made through the West Ranch Web Store beginning February 8.

The option to have a Period 1 class is a privilege and students who request a Period 1 class are expected to meet the following criteria:

1. At least a 2.0 GPA in the previous semester
2. Excellent attendance
3. Students currently enrolled in a P.1 class earning more than 10 tardies and/or absences, will not be allowed to take a P.1 class the following semester.
4. The availability of Period 1 classes are very limited, therefore students may not get their P.1 request.
5. Period 1 classes are not guaranteed for siblings.

Please Note that with all the changes in the budget there have been a few more changes to COC enrollment procedures. Please read the following carefully for recent changes:

COC now giving out registration dates to students on a first come, first serve basis. So the sooner you bring in your special admission form, the sooner your registration date will be. Students new to COC students must complete assessment (on COC's Campus) and orientation prior to bringing in their Special Admissions forms (the forms the counselor signs).

All high school students (9-12 grades) should bring their special admission forms to the Admissions and Records office at the Valencia campuses for spring term NOW. The registration process is now online for high school students. When you turn in your special admission form, you will receive a registration date and time.

College Bound Seniors!!! Make sure and Visit the Senior Page for valuable announcements, scholarships, and college information.

Students interested in taking any online courses note that the BYU proctoring fee is $40 per exam, payable to ASB.

Seniors taking BYU online classes needed for graduation must complete them (including the final exam) prior to Winter Break.
