UC expands free online classes for high school students

BY BILLY KOBIN, Sacramento Bee

Seeking to help disadvantaged students, the University of California announced an expansion Wednesday of its online learning program that provides high school students with free access to courses required for admission into state universities. The UC Scout program will now offer 65 online classes and 26 Advanced Placement classes. The expansion of the program, which seeks to close ethnic and racial achievement gaps in California, was made possible with $4 million in the 2016-17 state budget, according to a news release.
