New Outlook Academy is continuing its College within the High School program through Allegheny County Community College! Classes currently being offered include Psychology 101 and Academic/Personal Development (SDS) 102.
Psychology 101 provides students with an understanding of how the scientific method is applied to the study of human and animal behavior.
SDS 102 is a course in the techniques for becoming a successful college student. Coping skills and strategies for transitioning to college are emphasized. The course fosters an awareness of self, the role of self-esteem and confidence in learning, and the importance of self-management skills and tools. Links between student needs and campus resources and processes are explored.
