Charter school proposal in California would combine high school and college

Students would attend high school and college simultaneously in Culver City

From The Los Angeles Daily News: Da Vinci Charter High School in Hawthorne, Calif., is proposing to open a new campus in Culver City, Calif., with a novel approach: a one-stop-shop high school, community college and university. Under the proposal, students would attend public high school and college simultaneously on the campus of Antioch University. They'd finish high school in five years instead of four, but on graduation day would receive a high school diploma and an associate of arts degree. Students then would have the option to continue on at Antioch for two more years to obtain their bachelor's degrees at a reduced rate, although they could go elsewhere, too.
