- Submit a request to the counselor at your school. All ASD high schools (including ASD homeschools) are eligible to enter student requests for King Tech into Q for the auto-scheduler. This ensures that all ASD students have equal opportunity to attend King Tech.
- If your request is not entered into Q before the auto scheduler is run, there will be another opportunity for your counselor/advisor to submit a request.

• How many classes do I take in a day?
-
- 1 CTE class (= 3 regular classes/1.5 credits)
- 3 core classes (.5 credit each)
- Can I take 2 CTE classes?
- Full-time students will work with their counselor on a graduation plan. Some seniors may be eligible to take 2 cte classes in a day once graduation requirements have been met.
• What if I am behind in credit or if I want to get ahead? Can I take online classes?
-
- We do offer a limited selection of online courses. We work individually with students to develop a graduation plan using core credits from cte courses, our academic courses, and online courses to fill in the gaps. However, we are not designed to be a credit recovery school, so we may suggest a part-time enrollment for students who need to complete more than a year’s worth of core credits.
• Can I earn college credit?
-
- Yes. Some courses will earn college credit. Work with the instructor.
• Can I take a class at AMCS?
-
- Some students decide to enroll in AMCS after one semester at King Tech. Talk to the counselors about entrance requirements and the application process.
• Can I be a full time King Tech student and still play sports at my school?
-
- Yes.
• Can I be a full time King Tech student and take a foreign language or JROTC at my school?
-
- No. Due to the complexity of King Tech’s academic scheduling, we are unable to schedule students in face-to-face core classes in addition to a face-to-face class off site during ASD high school hours. We recommend that JROTC and Immersion students enroll in King Tech as part-time students.
