All our classes are currently hybrid only.
Evans offers all courses required for a California high school diploma. Our high school program uses a college preparation curriculum, offering challenging courses that will enable our students to develop their critical thinking skills, knowledge, and study habits needed to succeed in post-secondary education.
You have three options to earn a high school diploma:
-
OPTION 1 - Students may take the full 170 credits required for a high school diploma, OR
-
OPTION 2 - Students may take any of the high school equivalency exams (HiSET, GED, TASC) in English + 50 credits in specific subjects, OR
-
OPTION 3 - Students may take any of the high school equivalency exams (HiSET, GED, TASC) in Spanish or French + 70 credits in specific subjects.
Each successfully completed class counts for 5 credits or units of study. Students may be granted credits from courses previously taken at another accredited secondary or foreign school equivalent to high school level. Credits may also be granted for some paid work experience and for military service.
