Stage 2 Community Studies A may be undertaken as a 10-credit subject or a 20-credit subject.

In developing an individual program of learning around his or her interests, knowledge, and skills, each student prepares a contract of work to undertake a community activity in one of the following six areas of study:

• Arts and the Community
• Communication and the Community
• Foods and the Community
• Health, Recreation, and the Community
• Science, Technology, and the Community
• Work and the Community.

As part of their program of learning, students may undertake a community activity that applies to more than one area of study. The area of study chosen should reflect the primary focus or emphasis of the activity.
