Graduation Requirements

At SLCSE, our expectation is that students will do more than take the minimum required courses for graduation. All of our students take 4 years of mathematics and 4 years of science, plus electives of their choosing. During their 11th and 12th grade year, some students choose to take classes at SLCC or the University of Utah, getting a jump-start on college. Below is a typical sequence of courses taken in grades 9-12.
