The Course Request window will be open from March 16th at 8:00 am to March 27th at 11:59pm.

As students in each grade level are selecting courses, we may find that some Electives are reaching a maximum capacity based on class size limitations. These courses will close for registration for the next grade level, and we will add them to a Course Interest List. Students can indicate their interest in taking the class on the Course Interest List if any spots become available.

Dual Enrollment allows high school students to take college courses and earn college credit in both academic and career subjects. Colleges and universities often grant college credit to students who successfully complete dual enrollment courses, which can reduce the number of semesters needed to earn a degree. This can save money on tuition, room and board, and student loans. Research shows that students who participate in dual enrollment are more likely to graduate high school, enroll in college, and earn a college degree.

Earning college credit while still in high school can be extremely rewarding, as it not only allows students to get a head start on their degrees, but also exposes them to the rigors of college courses. Additionally, these programs give students the opportunity to demonstrate their readiness for college life and academics to college admissions committees.

NJROTC courses may be used to meet the UC/CSU "G" Elective category.

AVID offers rigorous academic support and strong connections to Westview and our community which is great for all students so we look to include as many students as possible.

Being part of AVID also takes hard work and perseverance so the most important criteria that we look for are determination and strong motivation to attend a 4-year college.

Other criteria we use to ensure AVID is a good fit for students include students who are 1st generation college-going, part of traditionally underserved populations, experiencing circumstances that make achievement difficult, and are academically viable.

AVID STUDENTS ARE:

• Critical Thinkers

• College Bound

• Determined

• Digital Citizens

• Connected

In order to become a pathway completer, a student must complete 20 credits in both a concentrator and capstone course OR two capstone courses in the same pathway. Students who achieve CTE Pathway Completion will receive a certificate, a notation on their transcript, and a special diploma seal for each pathway they complete. The following pathways are offered at Westview High School.

Please click on the image below to view the designated courses for each CTE Pathway. For additional information, please visit the Poway Unified CTE website.

PLEASE NOTE: Starting with the Class of 2030, the Poway Unified School District will require 30 credits of Math and 75 credits of Electives for graduation.

Courses taken prior to the start of 9th grade will not count towards high school graduation and will not appear on the student's transcript.

If you are taking a foreign language course outside of Westview you will need to complete the Application and Authorization Form for Foreign Language Credit PRIOR to beginning the class. The form must be turned in to Ms. Hartman is Westview's front office.

Prior to enrolling in a class outside of Westview, speak with our Registrar, Ms. Carroll (kcarroll@powayusd.com), to ensure it is on the PUSD approved list of outside courses.

Our recommendation is to not skip a level of math. PUSD does not currently have any approved Integrated Math classes through outside schools or programs that will be accepted for credit. If a student takes something over the summer it will not be on their PUSD transcript. More importantly, if a student signs up for the higher level next year and realizes it was not the correct placement, they are not guaranteed a spot in the previous level, as there may not be space available.

Specific to Integrated Math II: Aside from the mathematical instruction and curriculum reasons against skipping Integrated II, there is a college requirement component, as well. The UC system requires that students take a geometry-based math course as part of their 3-year math sequence. They consider Integrated Math II to be this course in the Integrated sequence. We have been advising students against skipping Integrated Math II for this reason in particular. We do not want students to find that when they apply for college that they do not meet the UC requirements because they did not take Integrated II. More information can be found in the UC Counselor Reference Guide.

Please note: The PE and Health classes offered through the Poway Virtual School are available to 10-12th grade students at Westview. All 9th grade students at Westview take the ENS 1-2 class, which meets PE and Health credits.
