Academics
Cedar Crest High School offers four (4) different levels of classes to meet the needs of students including applied, college prep, honors, Advanced Placement courses, and learning support. All students are required to complete 4 credits in the areas of mathematics, English, social studies, and science. In addition, students must complete a certain number of electives each year as well as the completion of a senior project.
The school offers foreign language study in Spanish, French, German, and Latin. Each language is offered at levels 1 through 4, with levels 3 and 4 of each language ranked as an honors level course. Although students do not have to study a language to graduate, many students participate in the foreign language program for two years in order to meet possible college requirements.
The AP courses offered are Art History, Biology, Calculus AB, Calculus BC, Chemistry, Computer Science, English Language and Composition, English Literature and Composition, U.S. Government and Politics, Macroeconomics, United States History, Human Geography, European History, Physics C, Psychology, and Statistics. In addition, they offer many elective classes in the areas of agricultural sciences, art, music, earth and space sciences, sociology, humanities, and applied arts.
In 2010, the school created a new program called Mandatory Academic Support (MAS). Students are assigned to this program by a teacher. The program was designed so that teachers may not simply fail students who choose not to do projects, but to give them the opportunity to do work with the assistance of a teacher.
