What is the Bell Schedule? (We are on the 5 x 5 Block.)
Our bell schedule is similar to other high schools in Nebo school district. ALC operates on an A/B block schedule with 5 periods each day. Classes are held during periods 1 & 2, and 4 & 5. For students attending Salem Hills or Spanish Fork, period 3 is used for travel time between the ALC and the high school. ALC Bell Schedule.
Is transportation available?
YES! There are Nebo school buses that run to and from Payson, Springville, Maple Mountain and Spanish Fork High Schools. Buses run before school, during lunch (or 3rd period), and after school. ALC Bus Schedule Schedules and routes are subject to change in response to student use. Plan on being a few minutes early to the bus stop, as the bus only stops at each location for a few minutes to load and unload. PLEASE NOTE: If your student is attending afternoon ALC classes, the afterschool bus will not arrive at the home high school in time to catch buses to neighborhood routes. Parents will need to make arrangements to either pick the student up from the high school or at the ALC. Otherwise, students should take classes in our morning block instead. Salem Hills High School students are within walking distance to the ALC, no bus transportation is provided.
What are the course offerings at the ALC?
The ALC offers three different types of classes:
CTE, CE or Early College Classes (face-to-face) ALC Course Offerings
UVU Live Interactive Classes (Distance Learning)
What is Concurrent Enrollment (CE)?
Concurrent Enrollment is a state-wide partnership, allowing high school students the opportunity of earning both college and high school credit concurrently while taking college courses by approved high school teachers. These college credits are transferable to most state colleges and universities and become part of the students permanent college record. Over 90% of our ALC courses are Concurrent Enrollment with either Utah Valley University or Weber State.
Tuition cost for CE is $5.00 per credit and paid directly to the University.
Homeschool students wanting to enroll in Concurrent Enrollment Classes will also need to follow UVU's Homeschool policy - more information here: Utah Valley University
What is UVU Live Interactive (Distance Learning)?
Live Interactive is another way for students to earn college credit through Concurrent Enrollment. However, these courses are broadcasted in real-time from UVU to an ALC classroom and taught by a UVU professor. Students can see their professor on a screen and communicate with him/her through a microphone. Classes are offered on MWF or T/TH throughout the day, which conflicts with A/B schedule - please work with our ALC counselor on how these classes would work with your high school schedule.
How do I enroll for Concurrent Enrollment or Live Interactive?
If students have never participated in CE or Live Interactive before, you will FIRST need to be admitted to the college your courses are through. THEN you can register (or sign up) for classes.
PLEASE NOTE: Most ALC Concurrent Enrollment courses are through UVU - however, there are some courses through Weber State University.
