Castaic High School officials recently announced the deadline to enroll for the fall semester at iCAN Academy is fast approaching, leaving families of current 8th grade students in Santa Clarita with less than two weeks to apply.

The application deadline for the academy is on Friday, Feb. 15 at 4 p.m.

“After the deadline has passed, applicants will be sent an application packet with information about the selection and acceptance process,” said school officials.

iCAN Academy combines high school academics and college classes beginning in 9th grade, which is similar to the academic program at Academy of the Canyons, according to officials.

The academy will give students the ability to earn both high school and college credits through a dual enrollment program with the Hart District and College of the Canyons.

Essentially, students will have the opportunity to get the full comprehensive high school experience and participate in extra-curricular activities such as athletics and performing groups.

iCAN Academy highlights the following features:

• Partnership with College of the Canyons
• High school and college dual credit opportunities
• Multiple career certifications
• High-quality instruction of the Hart School District, ranked in the top 10 percent nationally by US News & World Report
• State-of-the-art facilities for academics, athletics and performing arts
• Brand new, cutting edge campus on 58 acres in Castaic

If a student lives outside Castaic High School’s boundaries, an application for the iCAN Academy application and open enrollment must be completed, according to officials.
