A wide variety of both required courses for seventh and eighth grade students as well as required courses for grades 9-12 are included in the following pages. These courses are listed along with their course descriptions.

Students wishing to take courses beyond those which are required should consult with their guidance counselor to determine their eligibility for these courses. Most courses are taken in sequence so that students do not find themselves in academic difficulty as a result of taking a course that is too advanced.
