  1. For the senior class of 2013 Course Enrollment

  2. Basic preparation • Pass ECA in English 10 and Algebra I • Meet requirements for a diploma • Regular diploma • Core 40 diploma • Academic Honors diploma

  3. ECA Requirements • Meet ECA Standard in English 10 (360) and Algebra I (564) • Waiver • Retest at least once a year • Complete all remediation provided by school • Maintain 95% attendance rate • Achieve a C- average (1.5 GPA) in the 34 credits specifically required for graduation • Complete all graduation requirements • Recommendation & documentation in area not passed by teacher and principal

  4. Core 40 Diploma

  5. Core 40 with Academic Honors Diploma

  6. Additional considerations for Academic Honors Diploma: Must complete ONE of the following: • 2 AP courses and corresponding AP exams –OR- • Dual HS/college courses resulting in 6 college credits –OR- • 1 AP course and corresponding AP exam and a dual HS/college course resulting in 3 college credits –OR- • 1750 or higher on SAT(3 sections, no score less than 530 on any section) –OR- • ACT composite of 26 or above, must include writing

  7. General Diploma • Beginning with students who enter high school in 2007-2008, completion of Core 40 becomes a graduation requirement. • A general diploma is only available to students whose parents feel students are unable to complete the Core 40 curriculum. • To graduate with less than Core 40, a formal Opt-out process must be completed. • Beginning in fall 2011, Core 40 will be an admissions requirement to attend a public four-year university in Indiana (Core 40 is a minimum requirement – colleges may have additional admissions requirements).

  8. Core 40 Opt-Out Triggers • A parent may request that a student be exempted from the Core 40 curriculum and be required to complete the general diploma to graduate, or • The student does not pass at least three (3) courses required under the Core 40 curriculum, or • The student receives a score on the graduation examination that is in the twenty-fifth percentile or lower when taking the graduation exam for the first time. ***If the decision is made to opt-out of Core 40, the student is required to complete the course/credit requirements for a general diploma and the career/academic sequence the student will pursue is determined.

  9. Core 40 Opt-Out Process • The student, the student’s parent/guardian, and the student’s counselor meet to discuss the student’s progress. • The student’s career/course plan is reviewed. • The student’s parent/guardian determines whether the student will achieve greater educational benefits by completing the general curriculum or the Core 40 curriculum. • Opt-out form signed by parent and student

  10. General Diploma

  11. 12th Grade Enrollment Decisions English Social Studies Math Science Foreign Language Electives

  12. Considerations for course selection: • Any English, math, social studies, or science course that you did not pass must be repeated. • Have you completed health and PE? • Strength of senior schedule is very important to four-year colleges. Four college prep classes/semester recommended.

  13. English Choices

  14. Social Studies Everyone will take: Economics – And- Government Electives: (all 1 semester) Sociology* Psychology* Adv Soc St CC, Ethics* *May be taken for college credit

  15. 2 New Options for Math • Trigonometry (Sem 1) • Probability and Statistics (Sem 2) • Both classes count towards academic honors math credit. • Both are one semester classes • Prerequisite of Algebra II (reg. or honors) • These classes will carry a regular class weight • These are not college credit classes.

  16. Math Choices Geometry Algebra II (completes Core 40) Algebra II, Honors (also Core 40) Trigonometry Probability and Statistics Pre-calculus* (completes IAH) AP Calculus AB* *May be taken for college credit

  17. Science Choices

  18. World Languages French II, III or IV German II, III or IV Spanish II, III or IV Colleges prefer to see advanced study of one language rather than starting a new language your senior year.
