Academy of the Canyons (AOC) is a public middle college high school in Santa Clarita, California, United States. The school, which enrolls students from the 9th to the 12th grade, is part of the William S. Hart High School District. It is located on the Valencia College of the Canyons campus where the students of AOC are concurrently enrolled. Those who are enrolled take high school classes at the Academy of the Canyons section of the University Center, and college courses at the College of the Canyons campus. During grades 9-12 students can earn up to 80 college units, enough to receive an associate degree.
