Other Things to Consider

• Technology Education courses will apply to your career elective and are good for students who wish to become engineers or like to build and design. Click Here

• You must pass THREE years of science to graduate. Biology is a graduation requirement!

• Please review the Student Scheduling Newsletter from Mr. Durso. It is also online.
