How it Breaks Down A = History B = English C = Math D = Science E = Foreign Language F = Visual and Performing Arts G = College Prep Elective
How it Breaks Down A = History 2 Years B = English C = Math D = Science E = Foreign Language F = Visual and Performing Arts G = College Prep Elective
How it Breaks Down A = History 2 Years B = English 4 Years C = Math D = Science E = Foreign Language F = Visual and Performing Arts G = College Prep Elective
How it Breaks Down A = History 2 Years B = English 4 Years C = Math 3 Years (Alg 1, Geo, Alg II) D = Science E = Foreign Language F = Visual and Performing Arts G = College Prep Elective

What do you think? • 35.6% of all California seniors graduate having completed their A-G requirements. • 38.4% of all Hart School District grads have completed theirs. • (1)What percent of 2009-2010 Canyon students do you think completed their A-Gs?

Your next question (2) Explain why there is such a gap between male and female rates of A-G completion.
Hart District A-G Completion % • Valencia: 56.9% • Hart: 52% • West R.: 48.7% • Saugus: 46.3% • Golden V.: 38.8% • Canyon: 32.8% • Bowman: 0%
Question #3 • Hypothesize why A-G completion rates are higher at other schools in our district.
Canyon 2009 - 2010 Of 540 total students who completed 4 years and all coursework at Canyon High School: • 130 students completed A-G 24% • 89 students missed by one category 16.5% • 53 more students missed by two categories 9.8% • 44 more students missed by three categories 8% • Of the 410 students who did not meet A-G, 111 completed both Math and Science (27% of the non-completers)
Your final response • Create a plan that the Cowboys can use to increase our A-G rates.
