JUNIOR HIGH & SENIOR HIGH! Customize Electives and Build Your Transcript on Discovery Thursday!

 Electives are offered for junior and senior high NDA students at our Howard City campus!  Students can choose which electives they'd like to take, allowing them to customize their transcript!  These classes meet on Discovery Thursday.  Electives begin at 9:30, though NDA students meet at 8:30 for a first-period math class on Thursday before electives begin on Thursday.
Check Out Elective Courses for Junior/Senior High Students on the Discovery Thursday Jr/Sr Page!
Note that some classes may not be held if most students select the other options in a given time slot.  Also note that:

  • Some classes incur an extra fee to cover class expenses.
  • Some classes require that students provide their own supplies (such as a instrument or laptop, etc.)
  • Students must sign up for both semesters of any year-long classes.
