Extended Campus Program
Through the Extended Campus Program, upper school students have the option of taking college courses off campus, beginning at grade 9, taking on-line courses, and/or working part time during their senior year. Fuqua School maintains close contact with cooperating institutions and employers.
College Courses
Students wishing to take a course at a college during the school day must secure prior permission from their parents and the upper school dean. In order to be approved by the School, the course must 1) be accelerated beyond the scope of the school's current curriculum, 2) provide subject matter depth beyond the scope of the school's current curriculum, or 3) cover a subject unavailable on campus. Students are limited to one course per semester. A course taken at a college may not be substituted for a course offered on campus.
On-line Courses
Students wishing to take an accredited on-line high school course must secure prior permission from their parents and approval of the upper school dean. In order to be approved, the course must be 1) a repeat class taken in the summer, 2) a class during the school term that is unavailable due to scheduling conflicts, or 3) a summer class for credit needed for advancement to the next grade.
Part-time Employment
Students wishing to work during school hours must secure permission from their parents and the upper school dean. They must also provide verification of employment from their employer.
