Our college preparatory environment, which is designed to exceed the requirements of the Arizona state university system offers a wide range of courses from each department including English, Algebra, Calculus , Science , Government, Psychology, Free Enterprise, Economics. We also provide a variety of electives.

Even with our standard rigorous, college prep curriculum, most of our graduates go beyond the minimum requirements through our Advanced Placement program, dual enrollment opportunities through Seton Hill University, or challenging electives such as Anatomy and Physiology, Academic Decathlon or Psychology.

Visual and Performing Arts:
Seton students have the opportunity to pursue their passion for the performing and visual arts through a rapidly growing Fine Arts program that features ceramics, photography and film as well as some of the more traditional two-dimensional media, such as pencil, charcoal, or paint. Briefly, academics at Seton Catholic are challenging and enriching, and these are just some of the ways in which students enjoy the richness and depth of our academic requirement.

Advanced Placement and Honors Courses:
Students interested in Honors and AP classes need departmental approval to take the class. Approval is based on student’s ability, motivation, and grades. If a student is not successful in an Honors class, they may be removed at the discretion of the teacher and/or the Assistant Principal. Success in an Honors or AP class is determined by department minimum grade expectations of students in those classes.

Advanced Placement Courses are taught to honors students who are recommended for an advanced level course. AP courses allow students to take a College Board test which may give them college credit, dependent upon the test score. AP courses are offered in Art, European History, US History, English, Calculus, French, Latin, and Physics. Seton students also take the AP tests in Government, Spanish, and Psychology.
