(Rev. 11/2021). 2. Choosing Your Curriculum Graduation requirements are designed to give students a well-balanced program for acquiring the skills, attitudes, and knowledge needed to reach their full potential. A diversified and flexible curriculum is available. A wide range of electives, if wisely selected, will help students explore and develop their own interests and abilities. After meeting requirements , students may choose any subject they wish from the curriculum, being restricted only in those areas that must follow a prescribed sequence.

9 Although counselors assist students in choosing curriculum and vocational options, the ultimate responsibility for this planning belongs to the student and parent/guardian(s). Accepting the right to make decisions carries responsibilities. Examine closely the contributions you are willing and able to make to a particular course, as well as the benefits you can derive. Weigh the difficulty of your total course load. Also, consider the demands of commitments outside the classroom. Make choices for the right reasons. When selecting courses, past performances, results on standardized tests, and future plans should be among the indicators factored into a final decision. Parent and/or current teacher consultation is encouraged. Parents give their approval by signing the course selection sheet after discussing options with their child. Requirements for Graduation In order to qualify for a state-endorsed diploma, a student must have completed the selected program of study appropriate to his/her needs and abilities and must have earned a minimum of 130 credits which include the required subjects listed on the Course Planning Worksheet.

10 Students must successfully complete state assessment requirements. *Class of 2023 must earn a minimum of 120 credits No courses may satisfy more than one of the requirements. Course expectations ( District Proficiencies and/or NJ State Core Proficiencies) will be clearly set forth in writing for any course required for graduation, and will be available to the student or his or her parents/guardians upon request to the classroom teacher. The Board of Education will provide opportunities for remediation to students who fail to meet required proficiencies. Levels of Instruction The honors curriculum is designed to provide the highly motivated and self-disciplined student with an opportunity to pursue a variety of subject areas in an intensely challenging academic environment. The coursework will be sophisticated and demanding, frequently requiring the student to participate in independent research, to analyze facts and evaluate information.
