Who We Serve:
Grades 6-8

At the Orange County School of Computer Sciences (OCSCS), we prepare students for a rapidly evolving, technology-driven world. Serving grades 6-8, our program blends foundational skills in English Language Arts, mathematics, and computer science with hands-on learning in design thinking, entrepreneurship, and collaboration.

 

Our curriculum integrates C-STEM through UC Davis in science, math, and electives, while also offering technology-based courses such as eSports, Computer Graphics, and for our most advanced learners, AP Computer Science Principles. Students can further enhance their learning with Physical Education, Study Skills, Music, and a Dual Language Academy for Spanish-speaking students.

 

Through mastery-based learning and innovative teaching practices, OCSCS equips students with the skills needed for their current and future success, fostering creativity, problem-solving, and leadership. OCSCS proudly reflects the diversity of Orange County and ensures equal access for all students, regardless of the nature, extent, or severity of disabilities or special education needs.
