SOCC ACADEMIC CALENDAR

See the SOCC Academic calendar website at this link.

NBHS staff are NOT notified of a student’s placement into their classes, nor are we able to track their registration.

NBHS is unable to approve all requests due to limited availability of state-awarded credits. Students will be approved on a case-by-case basis; first come, first served with the exception that SOCC will be offered to Seniors as a priority. If credits remain after all the eligible Seniors are placed, NBHS counselors and administrators will award classes to Juniors as available. If a student fails any SOCC class, they will automatically be denied for future applications. Underclassmen are not eligible for SOCC Off Campus classes.

Textbooks for Expanded Options:

1. Go to the Bookstore link and order the books under “Textbooks”

2. If the textbooks are online and the class was approved by NBSD, it will automatically be charged to NBSD
