Program Overview

RECA is facilitated through Rampart’s AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) program which prepares students for college through rigorous academic instruction in study skills, organization, note-taking, communication skills, writing, test-taking strategies, personal development and team building. AVID Elective teachers will work with students in the Early College Academy.

The benefits of Early College Academy include:

  • Opportunity to earn 30 General Ed. college credits, but you aren’t pigeon-hold into a major

  • The 30 credits are weighted

  • You do not need to pass an end of the year test like you do in AP or IB classes; instead, you need to pass the class

  • Taking rigorous classes with the support from your AVID Elective teacher

  • Majority of classes will be taught by Rampart teachers

  • Courses are offered within the school day, as part of the student’s regular schedule

  • This program is free
