Hillview has a variable credit system. Rule of thumb: for every twelve productive days attended, a student has the opportunity to earn one credit for each class in which they are enrolled.

Credit Recovery

Hillview uses an online platform to provide students with a flexible credit recovery option. This solution provides a comprehensive 4 x 4 course offering aligned with standards and national best practices. These courses accommodate below-, on-, and/or above-grade instruction by providing districts and schools with a way to reach multiple learners across a wide variety of learning environments. The courses offer a range of core and elective subjects, with a curriculum structure built around discrete learning objectives.

Additional Ways to Earn Credits at Hillview

Hillview graduation requirements are consistent with high schools in the Tustin Unified School District. The majority of students are required to work outside the school day to help make up credit.

Listed below are the ways that students can help make up credit.

ØAfter School - Students have an opportunity to make up credits by attending after school, which is held on the Hillview campus. Classes run Monday through Thursday from 2:45 P.M. to 4:00 P.M. 

ØWork Experience - Students who have a part-time job can get both their salary and school credit. For every 136 hours worked, a student will receive 5 credits. For more information, please contact Mrs. Reyna in the office.

ØCommunity Service Work - Service and giving back to the community is important at Hillview.  Students can volunteer their time to help out in the community such as the Boys/Girls Club, Library, Church, hospital, other TUSD schools, etc.

ØROP - The Regional Occupational Program offers a wide variety of classes throughout Orange County. These classes are designed to help prepare students for a job in that particular field. Students interested in enrolling need to contact a School Counselor, Sara Thede. For more information, please go to the ROP website at www.coastlinerop.net
