University of Nebraska joins forces with local tutors
Students at Valencia Tutors in Canyon Country are now able to take courses and receive credit from the Independent Study High School (ISHS) at the University of Nebraska, Lincoln (UNL). All courses are accredited by the Nebraska Department of Education, the North Central Association on Accreditation and the Commission on International and Trans-regional Accreditation. This accreditation is recognized worldwide. Upon successful completion of a course, the University will provide an official transcript to the student’s local Santa Clarita high school.
[view:node_ad=5]Students also have the option to complete their entire high school diploma through the Valencia Tutors/University of Nebraska program. The diploma program has two tracks: a general diploma and a diploma for those intending to enter a college or university upon graduation. High School diplomas will be awarded by the University ISHS.For students attending local high schools this is an opportunity to take a course at Valencia Tutors instead of their regular school and receive transferable credit for their work. While some will want to accelerate their high school graduation, others may need more time to concentrate on a difficult subject. Either way, the credentialed teachers at Valencia Tutors will work closely with their students from start to finish helping with assignments and preparing them for exams that must be passed before credit is granted.
