Beginning in the 2019-2020 school year, sophomores began taking a one-credit course that allows them to focus on one specialized pathway.

Pathways are like college majors; students choose which to pursue.

Students are allowed the opportunity to explore a different pathway if they discover that their original choice is not the best fit.

Students begin their College & Career Academy experience as ninth-graders in Freshman Academy, a half-credit seminar course.

College & Career Academies are a college and career pathway experience for students at Glendale and Hillcrest high schools. The new model is a preview of college and career options to help students plan their futures.

The College and Career Academy model is defined as a small, safe and supportive learning environment that is contained within a larger high school setting.
