At Salem, both the required classes by year and elective classes are somewhat different than Hogwarts.
Notes on classes different than Hogwarts -
American Magical History - Focuses on the history of magic in the United States
Flying - As Quidditch is not as common of a sport in the United States, most students who are taking this course are taking it to practice for Quodpot, which is a variant of Quidditch that features an exploding ball called a Quod.
Magical Beasts - Like Care of Magical Creatures, but only focused on magical creatures classified as 'beasts'.
Magical Diversity - Studying magical creatures classified as 'beings'. Students may learn about witches and wizards, vampires, werewolves, house elves, hags, veela, giants, goblins, merpeople, and centaurs.
World Magical History - Focuses on the history of magic in the rest of the world
