3. How will this course affect my school course work?
CAA courses are enrichment courses; they are designed to offer you areas of study not usually available in middle or high school. They usually do not affect what courses students take in the fall. However, if you want to inquire about receiving school credit, show this catalog and the courses you are interested in to your principal or guidance counselor. Remember that only your school can make a decision about credit or placement.
