options may apply.

3 needed for diploma; 4+ for college preparation/admissions

SOCIAL STUDIES

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

Dual Enrollment: High School students that take courses at Hillsborough Community College or University of South Florida that count as both college and high school credit. This program is open to all students who meet qualifications but HIGHLY recommended for

juniors/seniors (maturity, students responsible for transportation, etc).

HCC Dual Enrollment: https://www.hccfl.edu/admissions/dual-enrollment-and-early-admissions

USF Dual Enrollment: https://www.usf.edu/honors/accelerated-programs/dual-enrollment.aspx

All freshmen will take Biology, unless they already have credit, are taking it online, or transfer in with a different science. While AP Biology is listed here, it will not be added to a Freshmen schedule unless a parent/student meet with our AP Biology instructor and review the course objectives, student diagnostic data (test scores), grades, and expectations. AP Biology is typically a Junior/Senior course with a

very low success rate for Freshmen. It will be highly selective.

World Language is NOT a diploma requirement; it is a requirement for Florida university admissions. Two years of the same language would be the minimum. Students are encouraged to take more than the minimum for consideration to 4 year universities. Requirements

for schools outside of Florida may vary.

AVID (Advancement Via Individualized Determination) prepares students for college success through teaching skills/behaviors, positive peer groups, intensive tutorials, and developing personal achievement. AVID is a program by application. Students in AVID in 8th grade

will remain in AVID; students in AVID that wish to exit or not continue in high school, should complete the exit process from their current AVID instructor.

Agriscience Foundations is the entry level course into the Ag programs. Level 1 (Ag Foundations) should be taken first, then level 2 courses can be taken. Some students may have Ag Foundations in 8th grade. Those that do not may co-enroll into Ag Foundations AND Animal

Science (for example). Vet Assisting does not require the level 1 Ag Foundations.

AP Human is elective credit only but does open up an opportunity for college credit. College credit is based on passing the AP Exam.

1 Credit of Art is required for graduation; any class with a + can satisfy the requirement. Not all classes are within the art department, some are in technology, communication, etc.

Marching Band does NOT satisfy the HOPE requirement: http://www.fldoe.org/core/fileparse.php/7746/urlt/CCDNarrative1819.pdf (page 22-25)

Students choose their courses and will remain in their selections; schedule changes for teacher style or preference are not appropriate. All conflicts are to be resolved in a mature, professional manner. We ask that the student and parent first take the responsibility to meet with the teacher and work through the problem (or counselor if an error is suspected to have been made during scheduling). If a solution cannot be reached, the

parent or teacher should contact an administrator to meet about the issue.

Schedule changes will be made automatically for the following reasons:

·Completion of a summer school course (Florida Virtual/HVS) ·Incomplete schedule (missing a class); including a missing core class or lunch

·Two courses in the same period in the same semester ·Failure of or lacking a prerequisite course

·Master Schedule changes for population growth or the need to collapse classes that remain unfilled ·Dual Enrollment (once approved)

·Senior needing a graduation requirement ·To balance classes so that overcrowding does not occur
