  11. Core 40 Technical Honors Diploma

  12. For the Core 40 with Technical Honors diploma, students must: • Complete all requirements for Core 40. • Earn 6 credits in the college and career preparation courses in a state-approved College & Career Pathway and one of the following: • Pathway designated industry-based certification or credential, • or • Pathway dual credits from the lists of priority courses resulting in 6 transcripted college credits • Complete one of the following, • - Any one of the 5 options for the Core 40 with Academic Honors • - Earn the following scores or higher on WorkKeys; Reading for Information – Level 6, Applied Mathematics – Level 6, and Locating Information-Level 5. • - Earn the following minimum score(s) on Accuplacer: Writing 80, Reading 90, Math 75. • - Earn the following minimum score(s) on Compass; Algebra 66, Writing 70, Reading 80.

  13. 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).

  14. 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.

  15. 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 for signed by parent and student

  18. 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 schedule is very important to four-year colleges. Four college prep classes/semester recommended.

  19. English Choices for Juniors American Literature and Composition (Eng11) OR AP English Language and Composition* Elective – Student Publications AP Eng Lang & Comp • College level course where students read a variety of texts, analyze those texts and write with same level of skill, sophistication and thought as in first-year college comp • Intensive reading/writing course which focuses on American literature readings • Dual college credit can be earned • Students must take AP exam in May • Current cost of exam is $89

  20. Social Studies Choice for Juniors U.S. History Or U.S. History, Honors There are no electives in social studies for juniors. U.S. History, Honors • Recommendation of B or above in World History Honors

  21. 2 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.

  22. Math Choices Geometry Geometry, Honors Algebra II (completes Core 40) Algebra II, Honors (also Core 40) Trigonometry (AH math course, 1 cr.) Probability and Statistics(AH math course, 1 cr.) Pre-calculus* (completes AH) *May be taken for college credit

  23. Science Choices

  24. PLTW BioMed Science option • All PLTW BioMed courses can be counted as the third year science for all diplomas.

  25. World Languages French I, II, or III German I, II or III Spanish I, II or III Colleges prefer to see advanced study of one language, however, at least two years of a foreign language are recommended.
