Working toward success
A student's course selections throughout their high school career directly impact their options after graduation. All students are encouraged to prepare as best they can for continuing their education beyond high school into college (two-year or four-year), technical college, an apprenticeship or a job training program.
That said, students should always take the highest level of academic course work they can successfully handle, along with electives that offer views into different careers.
Students must successfully complete the following number of units to be promoted to the next grade:
Sophomore: at least 6 units
Junior: at least 12 units
Senior: at least 18 units
The promotional policy for the high school (grades 9 – 12) is based upon the accumulation of units rather than the number of years students are enrolled in the high school.
Students in grades 9 – 11 should enroll in a minimum of 6 ½ units per school year. Seniors are granted senior privileges if they are enrolled in a minimum of 6 units.
It is district practice not to allow students to drop a full year course after the first five weeks of school. A drop/fail will be printed on the academic transcripts if the course is dropped after the first five weeks.
