Job Experience & Training
WCSD public high school students who are at least 16 years of age may apply
to earn elective high school credit for working at a paid job. Each student is
responsible for obtaining his/her own job. Job Experience credit may be earned
at one-half (.5) credit for 60 hours of active participation per semester or
summer.
FOR MORE INFORMATION: Talk with your high school counselor.
Credit by Exam
Students who wish to challenge certain high school courses may take a Credit
by Exam (CBE). CBEs are offered through the Department of Extended Studies
of the Washoe County School District and in some cases at individual high
schools. There is a fee for the exams. A passing score will earn the student
ungraded high school credit.
FOR MORE INFORMATION: For information about CBE, contact your high
school counselor regarding application, fees, and deadlines. Additional
