Adv. Science credits or
B: Complete 2 Adv. Science credits and
1 Adv. Math credit or
C: Complete 2 STEM CTE credits and 1
credit in either an Adv. Math or Adv.
Science.
STEM Option 1 is a great choice for students that will have already earned credit for Algebra I in 8th grade because it allows them to take a math every year without the need to double up.
Course sequence would be as follows:
8th - Algebra 1 9th - Geometry 10th - Algebra 2 11th - Pre-Cal 12th - AP Calculus AB or BC
