graduation preparation

Ninth and tenth graders assess their personal learning styles in Advisory group and begin to identify areas of interest.

In junior year, students map their goals and options in more detail, and work one-on-one and in small groups with our Beyond d.tech Counselor, to help our students discover their aspirations and the steps to achieve them through senior year.

 

Design Tech graduation requirements meet or exceed the University of California A-G standards. The program does not include AP classes. However, students who wish to go deeper into a subject, or take on a higher level of rigor, may take Honors level classes in English (2-4), Chemistry, Biology, Advanced Physics, Advanced Environmental Science, Calculus & Advanced Statistics.

Juniors and seniors may also be eligible to take concurrent enrollment classes at local Community Colleges.

College admissions officers are very interested in the unique opportunities d.tech offers.

Our Beyond d.tech Counselor also offers parent and student education workshops throughout the year.
