So for example, this Junior student’s English progress is as follows:

English 9 – needs 1.0, has 1.0, so is complete (note the “Status” column)

English 10 – needs 1.0, has 1.0, so is complete

English 11 – needs 1.0, is enrolled for the full year (first semester grade not entered yet) so it’s “IN PROGRESS.”

English 12 – needs 1.0, has 0, this student will sign up for English 12!

New students: You may not have previous school’s credits reflected if your counselor has not received an official transcript from your last school.

Remember:

Once you complete an area, additional credits in that area are applied to “Electives” (ex. After you have 1.0 credits in Art, additional Art credits go to Electives).

In some instances, you may be able to use an equivalency to meet a requirement (ex. 2.0 Sports Med credit can be used for 1.0 PE

credit.); see your counselor with questions.
