Visual Arts and Graduation and UC requirements

Digital Arts and Photography are ART classes, meeting the UC "f" graduation requirement as well as the high school Fine Art graduation requirement (VPA requirement).

Students in Digital Arts and Photography classes, who complete a full year of the class with both semester grades of "B" or better, are eligible for articulated college credit, which is transferable to most four year colleges and universities.

College credit for a high school class~~ pretty sweet deal! 
Keep your grades up!

Art Department classes require that students maintain 65% or higher 
to pass and receive class credit.
