CALIFORNIA PREPARATORY ACADEMY

If your child has an Individualized Education Program (IEP), please contact your child's Case Carrier regarding placement in an independent study school. The IEP placement meeting must be held before a student can enroll into Cal Prep.

 

Please note: Online learning is not for everyone. It requires a great deal of self-discipline and self-monitoring, which are common characteristics of independent learners. Online classes also require a great deal of reading and interacting with others through the use of discussion boards and instant messaging.

To enroll for Fall 2023 and you are seeking to be a full-time or dual-enrolled student (majority of your classes at Cal Prep) it is required that you attend a one-hour information meeting. During the meeting, you will learn about Cal Prep's classes, online learning management systems, dual-enrollment with your resident high school, requirements of being a Cal Prep student, and more. You will also have the opportunity to ask questions.  At the end of the meeting, you will be given further instructions about enrollment, which will include an in-person visit to Cal Prep to turn in forms and choose classes.

 

 

If you are interested in taking a SINGLE COURSE for Fall semester 2023, please see your high school Counselor for approval. Here is the single course contract request form (click on the word "form") that you will need to submit to your Counselor. Math (except for Geometry and Personal Finance) and PE are not available as single courses. Some subjects may be full and not available for the Fall 2023 semester. 

Cal Prep students have the opportunity to participate in co-curricular programs, extra curricular activities, athletic team sports, and fine arts programs (band, orchestra, theater) at their CUSD "home" high school, as per CUSD Board Policy. This is a unique opportunity that is not commonly available to students attending online schools. Audition and try-out requirements apply.
