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.

*Refer to the checklist for graduation requirements to determine specific math and science requirements for the University Path. A total of twenty-eight (28) credits is required toward graduation. Fourteen (14) of these are core requirements, three (3) or four (4) are path requirements (depending on the chosen path) and the remaining credits will be electives. Please check the SCHS course sheet for course offerings as well as the details about path choices and types of diplomas offered. In addition to academic requirements, students must pass (70%) both the math and language parts of the TCAP Competency Test and take either the ACT, SAT, or Work Keys as an exit exam.
