Elective Courses
Electives (VRP) Grades 9 – 12
High School electives are courses that generally fall outside of the core academic subject areas (English, math, social studies, and science). In order to graduate from NorthStar Academy, a student must have earned the required number of elective credits. The diploma option a student selects will also mandate if an elective is required or not. Electives may reflect a student’s interests, introduce or improve skills, or be directly related to a career direction. Electives generally do not require as much time or work as a core course.
