Academic Classes

Students working toward a high school diploma must be interviewed by a Chaffey Adult School counselor prior to enrollment in classes. Students should see a counselor at least once each semester until graduation requirements are completed. Please call for an appointment.

High School diplomas are granted to students who successfully complete the requirements of the Adult School listed below. Students must also meet a residency requirement by completing a minimum of 10 semester units of credit in the Chaffey Adult School program.

Transcript evaluation of previous high school work by CAS staff determines credit. Credit may also be granted for other coursework, work experience and military service.

*To receive an adult school diploma, a student must complete the following requirements:

1) Successful completion of computer literacy requirements.
2) Successful completion of Algebra 1.
3) Successful completion of coursework.

These classes are semester-based and offer traditional teacher-led instruction using curriculum aligned with the State’s standards. Each class meets one night a week for three hours during the semester. These classes are available at no charge. All diploma classes meet at the CAS 5th Street campus and begin the week of August 15, 2017.
