A MESSAGE FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT

Dear Parents and Students:

This course catalog contains information about all areas of our secondary academic program. From dual-credit courses to art-infused curriculum, we offer an abundance of course selections for all Anderson Five students.

With multiple campuses available for students to attend, we aim to ensure that all students are provided a quality education in a safe environment. If you should have any questions regarding our course selections, please do not hesitate to contact a school counselor. Our goal with this publication is to make sure that parents and guardians are aware of the educational opportunities that exist in Anderson Five, and we appreciate any feedback from those that we serve.

On behalf of our Board of Trustees, I welcome you to the 2021-2022 school year, and I look forward to building upon our record of academic success and excellence.

Sincerely,

Thomas A. Wilson Superintendent
