The AOC GUIDE TO 2030 and BEYOND
FRESHMEN
First year Academy students focus on identity and self-awareness, developing an understanding of their personality, learning style, and personal strengths. Students develop an academic foundation and personal maturity necessary for the college environment.
SOPHOMORES
Second-year students build upon their newfound awareness for their strengths and interests to refine their understanding of career choices and civic engagement. Students explore career options and fields of study that help lay the foundation for their plans after high school.
JUNIORS
Third-year students refine their plan beyond high school and build the strengths and talents that apply to their career & college major. Students join a college that provides opportunity for AOC staff to channel a student's classroom contributions to their strengths and talents.
SENIORS
Fourth-year students look to bridge their work at AOC to their next phase of life. Students develop a Capstone project that addresses a need in the community. AOC colleges encourage students to explore college pathways, develop portfolios, and guide extracurricular choices.
AOC is DEEP ROOTED.
Our program is extremely intricate, with several components that students have to take into account in order to achieve their goals. We want to make it as easy as possible to navigate our unique program, and provide support every step of the way.
As a team, we have launched this platform in order to centralize resources for guidance and direction, readily accessible to AOC students.
