: My proposed translation was "crédito basado en experiencia escolar". Something like that, anyway. / I'd give this even higher confidence. It fits the context perfectly and it's an Oregon thing. // Whoops! I meant extraescolar!

PROFICIENCY BASED CREDIT
Profciency Based Credit (PBC) offers students the opportunity
to earn graduation credit by demonstrating profciency in Oregon
State Content Standards. PBC applies to experiences previously
referred to as alternative experience––such as extended travel,
summer experiences, internships, community music, dance or
art, etc. PBC may also refer to opportunities previously called
Independent Study. Students interested in PBC must meet with
their Academic Counselor prior to the experience.

Note from asker:
| I wrote to the Principal and was waiting for an answer, but I think this is it. I thought it was something about Proficiency but could not guess the other letters. |

I have already checked the school website and the programs of study and the term appears but only the acronym with no explanation.
