The University of California Office of the President has granted A-G approval for 34 Edgenuity online courses.

Approval for the Edgenuity courses will last through the 2015-2016 school year.

Edgenuity courses receiving A-G approval include:

  • Five English language arts classes;
  • Two science courses, biology and chemistry;
  • Eight math courses;
  • Three social studies courses;
  • Five high school Spanish and French language classes;
  • Four general elective courses such as economics and geography; and
  • Seven advanced placement courses.

"Edgenuity is proud to uphold the high academic standards outlined by the University of California across such a broad range of our approved online and blended learning courses," said Sari Factor, CEO of Edgenuity, in a prepared statement. "From advanced placement courses to lab sciences, we are committed to providing an engaging, content-rich curriculum designed to prepare students to succeed in college and career."
