I agree with NMD. None of the 7 courses my S took transferred into HC for credit. As well, the selection is very limited. There was nothing in math higher than MV calc and Linear Algebra (there were some courses in applied math and math for teachers) and no course beyond introductory level physics (i.e. AP-Physics). But there is a wealth of biology courses. I’m not sure why there’s such a discrepancy.

The drop out rate could be affected by the ever-increasing number of high-schoolers attending the Extension School (we got a questionnaire on this issue) as well as adults taking courses for fun (a friend of ours is systematically taking music courses).
