Advanced Placement classes
- Students have the opportunity to take Advanced Placement courses sponsored by College Board to gain college credit before graduation. Classes offered include: Biology, Chemistry, U.S. Government, World History, U.S. History, Psychology, English Literature, English Language, Studio Art, Calculus, and Spanish Language. However, due to Clark County's budget cuts and financial difficulties,[6] AP classes have been largely limited due to the quota of 25 students needed to pilot each AP class. With the average class size being 30 students,[3] it is nearly unfeasible to garner enough students for an AP class. Participation in the AP program is largely voluntary and so AP class size turnouts tend to be low.
- Through the Jumpstart Dual Credit High School Program, students may also take dual-enrollment courses which grant both graduation credits and CSN credits.[7]
