Requirements for Graduation


 

 

 All students will be required to choose a path toward graduation.
This will be either the University Path or
Tech Prep Path ( or the Dual Path  which is a combination of both). Students will complete 14 credits of core requirements in addition to the
 requirements for their chosen path.
