A copy of our school "graduation check list" has been enclosed enabling students and parents to keep track at home of all classes students have been taken and passed or classes which need to be repeated. We strongly recommend this check list be used, and if you or your parents have questions do not hesitate to contact our counselor. We also suggest he "KCS course description handbook" you were given in the spring be used to plan your classes through graduation.
The curriculum is organized into three academic pathways and six career clusters. The academic pathways are College Prep, Technical Prep, and Occupational Prep. The career clusters are: health, human services, fine arts, business and management, science and natural resources, & engineering and technology. Students will be required to choose a pathway and cluster in the spring of their freshman year. During the spring of their sophomore year students will choose a major in their cluster
