In 2025, Freshman Academy will be reworked to fulfill a social studies credit requirement. Updates to the curriculum will include a focus on personal finance and connecting the course to the AoA’s Portrait of a Graduate. Going forward, this semester-long course will be called College & Career Exploration and Personal Finance.
Incoming freshmen will continue participating in College & Career Exploration and Personal Finance during the fall semester, a great introduction to high school and how to start thinking about what comes next. Guaranteed experience includes:
-
Freshman First Day Orientation
-
Career Expo
-
University of Alaska Anchorage (UAA) Campus Visit
The Academies of Anchorage transform the high school experience.
Freshman Academy is the first step on that journey.
