Guidelines for Course Selection1. Students must select the required courses for graduation first.(Math, Science,
Social Studies, English)2. Physical Education (PE), Health, or Computer applications are also required for
graduation and need to be scheduled if they have not taken them yet. 3. Descriptions of courses are in the course selection guide that was handed out
to students.4. Read the description of each course selected and be familiar with the correct
sequences for the grade level. (Use the Scope and Sequence table in this presentation or page 8 in your course selection guide.)
5. Always check course prerequisites in the course selection guide before selecting a course.
6. We encourage students to discuss course selections with parents.7. Students should speak with their teachers if they choose to take Honors and/or
AP course selections and get required signatures.8. If students still have questions they may see their counselor.

• Class rank is the position of any one student in a graduating class to all other students in that class based on a weighted grade point average (GPA).
• Class rank is calculated at the end of each quarter and is cumulative for your high school career.
• Class rank and GPA are sometimes used as criteria for colleges to determine acceptance.

• Weighted Courses: higher level courses carry an extra weight because they tend to be more academically challenging (identified in your course selection guide with {**} two red asterisks)
• Cumulative Credits: total of completed credits from ninth grade until now (A course must be finished and passed with 60% or higher final average{FAV} to receive the credit(s).)
• Grading Scale: translates your percentage grade to a letter grade and determines what is passing/failing
• Test Record: Keystone assessments are replacing PSSA’s
Transcripts
Your student’s attendance will be listed here when they graduate!
This will include scores of standardized assessments if Taken while in high school suchas Keystones, SAT, or ACT.
• FX: this is the grade a student has earned on a final exam
• FAV: this is the final average for the class and must be no lower than 60% in order to get credit for the class
• Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4: these are the individual marking period quarters
