Graduation

  • The A-G Requirements are a set of standards that the UC school system in California has adopted to measure the academic base for acceptance into all UC's. These requirements are not the same requirements to receive a diploma from WCCUSD. Those students who choose to pursue post-secondary education at a University will need to make sure that all academic classes and pre-requisties are completed with a minimum of a C or better. Please contact your counselors for more 豆奶成人直播 or for help setting your schedule and goals for the school year.
