(b) Students may meet the learning standards in technology, either through a course in technology education or through an integrated course combining technology with mathematics and/or science. A commencement-level course in technology education may be used as the third unit of credit in science or mathematics, but not both.
(e) To earn the advanced designation, the student must complete one of the following:
- A language other than English (3 units)
- CTE (5 units)
- The Arts (5 units)
A Unit is a year's work in a subject. All subjects must be successfully completed, as well as financial and other obligations met, to receive a diploma.
FINAL EXAMS
All students must be present for semester examinations. It is school policy not to provide for make-up tests. Should illness prevent a student from being present for a final semester examination, a doctor's note must be presented to the Assistant Principal before the end of the Exam Week, and 5 points will be deducted from the student's quarterly mark. A zero for the semester examination will be recorded if this procedure is not followed. If a student is found to be cheating on a Mid-Term, Final Exam or any State Regents Exam, the student will forfeit his/her right to complete the exam and receive an automatic zero for the exam.
A student who is enrolled in a Regents Course must complete the required Regents exam in order to receive full credit for the course.
Academic policy concerning failures is as follows:
- Any student who fails three units (required or elective, academic or other subjects) in any school year is ordinarily dismissed from Scanlan and must transfer to another school.
- Any student who fails a course must make this course up in Msgr. Scanlan's summer school. The requirement to attend summer school will not be withdrawn due to summer employment or family vacation plans.
- Subjects may not be repeated in Scanlan High School during the academic year.
