Course Offerings
The SVAH master schedule is designed to provide all students access to A-G classes, and therefore, to a 4-year university.
Students take 5-6 A-G classes each school year and have both the opportunity to receive honors credit and take AP level classes.
Students also receive academic support within and after the school day.
In addition, as a school with a Visual Arts focus, students will take a scaffolded sequence of arts classes beginning with Intro to Art in 9th grade, Design in 10th Grade, and electives in either Fine Arts or Digital Media Arts pathways in 11th and 12th grades.
