Introduction Academic Program Design The people and the programs at McMinnville High School provide a broad range of academic, extracurricular, and community activities that create a wealth of experiences for our students. Students have many opportunities to explore their interests and to develop plans for the future. Our academic program is designed to give students a strong foundation in the core subjects of English / Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Sciences. We also provide our students with the option to study world languages and choose from a spec-trum of classes in the fine and applied arts. Students have multiple opportunities to earn dual college credit through the College Cred-it Now (CCN) program as well as through the Advanced Placement (AP) program. Finally, McMinnville High School students are able to focus on a field of interest(s) as they work toward earning endorsements in any of our Career Pathway programs. McMinnville High School is designed to include smaller learning communities (SLC’s) for 9th grade students. Students in each learning community benefit from the consistency provided by a team of educators who work together to guide their assigned freshman stu-dents through the first year at McMinnville High. The team includes the teachers of core subjects: English / Language Arts, Math, Sci-ence and Social Studies, and an administrator, dean, and counselor. Sophomores continue course work in the core classes and the arts while enrolled in a variety of introductory courses to our Career Pathway programs. The Career Pathway introductory courses provide students with an overall view of the specific programs. Sopho-mores are encouraged to sign up for multiple introductory courses they may be interested in pursuing as juniors and seniors. Sopho-mores will have several opportunities to earn dual credit (CCN) as well as their first opportunity to take an Advanced Placement (AP) course. Juniors and seniors enroll in several AP classes and CCN classes while pursuing their Career Pathway endorsement(s) in their select-ed areas of study. Working closely with their teachers and counselors, McMinnville High School students can graduate with multiple endorsements in Career Pathways as well as dozens of CCN credits that will save them thousands of dollars and will prepare them to be successful as they pursue their career and higher educational goals.

Course Bulletin The McMinnville High School Course Bulletin provides students and parents/guardians with information about courses, programs, and career pathways. It includes specific requirements for graduation, as well as information about assessments and opportunities for dual enrollment in college in the CCN program. This bulletin contains brief descriptions of all approved courses offered at McMinnville High School. Students and parents should work together to identify the most appropriate course of study. Review the course offerings provided, the graduation requirements, and other information in this bulletin to make decisions about the courses required for graduation. Meetings with counselors and other school personnel about graduation requirements, scheduling, and related matters are an addi-tional component to the course selection and registration processes so that each student maximizes their learning opportunities. The counselors are available to review your records and to schedule appropriately, but it is the students’ responsibility to enroll in and successfully complete all necessary courses. Course selection in high school is fundamental to the realization of career and higher education goals. Students will make appropriate academic decisions if they relate the courses they take in high school to career choices they are considering for the future. We encour-age students to talk with their teachers and counselors about the courses needed and how they relate to a particular career interest.

Introduction – Cont. CCN:/College Credit Now (CCN) McMinnville High School has a partnership with Chemeketa Community College, Clackamas Community College, Linn-Benton Community College, Mt. Hood Community College, Portland Community College, and Western Oregon University in which stu-dents can earn both high school credit and college credit for the same class. When forecasting for new classes, students are encouraged to consider the dual-credit courses that are marked CCN. Upon completion of the class, students will have the option to register for college credit. Once registered, students will begin their official college transcript. After the successful completion of each additional course, students can choose to add them to their transcript. Once the student graduates, they can either attend the community college to complete more courses OR they can request a transfer of credits to a four-year university of their choice. There is no obligation to attend the community college in which the credits are earned and there is no requirement to register for College Credit Now even if enrolled in a CCN: course. Families are encouraged to take advantage of the CCN program even if the student is uncertain about his/her future plans for college. Will College Credit Now credits transfer to a University? College Credit Now courses transfer to universities just like any other college course. Students are encouraged to contact interested universities to confirm that CCN courses will be accepted for transfer credit and how applied. Is College Credit Now different than AP? The cost of College Credit Now through Chemeketa Community College is currently at $30 per year, per student, for un-limited qualifying CCN courses. Fees for College Credit Now courses through other partnerships vary. The CCN credit is based on classroom learning outcomes (activities and tests). Any students registered in a CCN course may receive college credit for that course as long as required coursework is satisfactorily completed and students receive a course grade of C - or above. Advanced Placement (AP) fees are approximately $92 per exam for each class. The AP credit is based on a grade students receive on the national exam(s) for the course(s). Students must receive a 3 – 5 on the AP exam in order for colleges to consider them eligible to receive college credit. How do students receive CCN credit and when do they register? Students can receive credit for a CCN course once their teachers have notified them that they qualify and have met the require-ments, and have paid the CCN fee. Registration is done internally through each high school CCN class and occurs Winter Term (January/February) and Spring Term (April). Grades are posted through the community college on a quarter system. Therefore, students can check the college’s website after fall, winter, spring or summer terms for their CCN grade. How do students find their grades at the college? Students can check their grades online at the appropriate college website. Note: Students will need to remember their college ID number, username, and password. The college notifies the students of their ID number and username. Should students register for CCN if they don ’t plan on attending a community college? Students should absolutely take advantage of CCN while they are in high school. Even if they do not consider community college as an option after high school, they will want to transfer credits to another college. It is a great and very affordable investment. CCN Courses for the current school year McMinnville High School works closely with local community colleges to get the CCN classes approved each year. The communi-ty colleges have final approval of each CCN course which could change the list of CCN classes each year. Future Courses McMinnville High School is continually pursuing post-high school opportunities around CCN:. More classes could be approved throughout the school year in both core content and career pathway courses.

Advanced Placement (AP) / Honors Courses Advanced Placement (AP), Honors, and advanced-level courses provide rigorous and challenging studies for students who are capable or motivated to pursue rigorous and challenging instruction. Honors Classes The curriculum in each Honors course includes appropriate adaptations for accelerated and enriched learning for pursuing in-depth studies that require abstract and higher-order thinking skills. Honors courses provide expectations and opportunities for students to work independently at an accelerated pace, to engage in more rigorous and complex content and processes, and to develop authentic products that reflect students’ understanding of key concepts. Honor courses are available in the following areas:

AP Classes Advanced Placement (AP) courses are those for which a College Board Advanced Placement examination exists. A qualifying score on an AP exam may give the student college credit or advanced standing in the subject in many colleges. These courses include concepts and skills that help prepare students for the AP exams. AP courses are available in the following areas: Stu- dents must take the AP test in order to receive AP credit on their transcript. AP exam fees may apply. Career Pathways McMinnville High School’s Career Pathway program provides students a “road map” with information on what courses to take and when to take them as they pursue a career area. Students clearly see the relationship between the courses available at McMinnville High School and the certificates or associate degrees that lead to careers in a specific industry. McMinnville High School offers endorsements in many career pathways. Students are required to earn 3.0 credits in pathway experience (2.5 credits for the class of 2021 and beyond). However, they can also earn a pathway endorsement if they earn 2.5 credits in the same pathway. Students can choose from the following career pathways: If students are interested in a more extensive career pathway experience, they can also choose to attend the Engineering & Aero-space Sciences Academy (EASA) This pathway offers students not only opportunities to earn career pathway endorsements but provide core courses within the ‘pathway team’ rather than within the traditional classrooms. To promote the fidelity of the ca-reer pathway experience, students are not permitted to take similar core courses outside of the ‘pathway team.’

Forecasting

Forecasting is the process students go through in the Spring to select their desired course offering for the upcoming school year.

Forecasting is done online by accessing www.msd.k12.or.us and selecting the Eschool link. During designated days students are

provided time and access to computers to complete the online forecasting. Students will need to know their Eschool username

and password. Forecasting is a request of classes a student would like to take. Forecasting courses are not an actual schedule of

courses for the upcoming school year, but rather a list of potential classes. Furthermore, please note it is not a guarantee that a

student will receive all the classes they have forecasted for.

Courses Outside of McMinnville High School

Students who are interested in taking a course not offered by McMinnville but from an accredited institution MUST receive ap-

proval PRIOR to registering for the class. Please see your counselor to initiate the process and receive the necessary form.

Work Experience Credit

Structured Work Experience credit is designed as pass/fail elective credit which is available to students who qualify by either:

Successful application and placement in a work experience position posted through the Work Experience Program, or

Referral by a counselor based upon qualifying criteria designated on Referral.

The student receives 0.5 elective credits for every paid (130 hours) work in the community. Eligible hours are from June 1 - May

31. A written training agreement is made with the student, parent, school and employer outlining program responsibilities. Work-

place supervisors provide training, learning, goals and evaluation of the student’s general employability skills. Students will also

complete additional activities and assignments outside of work time. There is a maximum of 3 credits/year and 4 credits through-

out high school. The number of credits is determined by the number of hours worked. Students must provide their own transpor-

tation.

Service Learning Credit

The Service Learning Program is designed to provide pass/fail credit for performing pre-arranged volunteer service in the commu-

nity while gaining new skills. This is monitored through the College & Career Center and their tracking sheet must be used.

Students must complete 65 volunteer hours for each .5 credit, including a written summary to be completed outside of the

volunteer time.

The volunteer worksite must be a non-profit or humanitarian business/agency, with a designated supervisor/evaluator present

at the worksite (not a parent) to verify service hours.

The provision of service is a requirement for the volunteer work, so it excludes activities such as fundraising, campaigning, solic-

iting, proselytizing, etc. Examples of appropriate volunteer worksites are the Power Hour Program, Kids on the Block, SMART, city

library and social service agencies. Some programs have prerequisites. Reporting forms and additional information is available in

the college & Career Center. Students must provide their own transportation.

Course Load (Student’s Schedule)

Freshmen and sophomores are required to carry a full program of study: 8 classes each semester. Juniors and seniors may apply

for approval to carry fewer classes after beginning this process with their counselor/academic adviser.

Open-Period

Juniors and seniors who have an open period must turn in a completed parent permission form to get an open-period. Forms are

available in the Counseling Center and should be returned there when completed. All forms need to be turned in during the first

week of each semester. Students with an open-period agree to leave campus during that identified period.

11

Teacher Aides

Juniors and seniors may request to serve as an aide for one period each semester. Students must first obtain permission from their

counselor and then from the person they will assist.

Pass/Fail

Students may take some classes on a Pass/Fail basis. Students will need approval of the teacher and administrator. The arrange-

ment to take a class Pass/Fail must be made during the first five weeks of class.

Changing Teams

Students are not allowed to switch teams. This includes 9th SLC teams and the EASA team.

Dropping a Class

Freshmen and sophomores are not allowed to drop any classes. Juniors and seniors, if on track to graduate, may drop a class for

an “Open Period” during the first two weeks (ten school days), of each semester. They must complete and return the “Open Peri-

od Request” form to their counselor. Any class drops requested after the first two weeks (10 school days), will require a complet-

ed “Open Period Request” form and the student will receive an “F” for the class dropped.

Schedule Changes

Staffing at McMinnville High School is based on students’ forecasting from the previous spring. Therefore, requests for a schedule

change will not be approved, unless student has been placed in an inappropriate level class.

OSAA Requirements

Students must take and pass a minimum of five classes (2.5 credits) in the current semester and previous semester to be eligible to

participate in OSAA-sanctioned activities and athletics. Additionally, a senior must start the year with a minimum of 19 credits, a

junior 11 credits and a sophomore 5 credits.

NCAA Requirements

Students who wish to attend college and play Division I or Division II athletics must meet the following requirements:

Earn at least a “C” grade in each NCAA-approved course. A “D” will earn the student high school credit but it will not count for

college admission standards.

English Language Development Overview

The MHS English Language Development (ELD) Program is designed to support English Learners (EL) in understanding, speaking, reading and writing English, and to assist them in overcoming any significant barriers to accessing the full academic curriculum. Placement is based on the results of the home language survey and the ELPA21 screener. The ELD program consists of the fol-lowing:

· One class period of instruction in English Language Development (ELD) at the student’s proficiency level

· Sheltered classroom instruction in key academic content areas, Language Arts and Social Studies (especially for students at the beginning through intermediate English language proficiency levels)

· Support from EL instructional assistants, as needed

· Differentiated instruction from mainstream classroom teachers

· After school tutoring/homework support

The primary goal of the program is for students to improve one level of English proficiency each school year, as measured by the English Language Proficiency Assessment (ELPA), a state-wide test given to ELs every spring. Another important goal of the pro-gram is to help students compete successfully with their native English-speaking peers in academic classes (Math, Science, etc.). Students are also encouraged to become actively involved in school sports, clubs, and social activities.

The focus of the ELD classes is on the acquisition of vocabulary and linguistic forms and functions. EL teachers are responsible for providing ELD instruction to students at their language proficiency level and in a way that is targeted to their needs. EL teachers also work with administrators to supervise and monitor the activities of the EL educational assistants. Teachers are responsible for tracking the academic success of EL students and for facilitating communication with family members (arranging for interpre-tation as needed). They also collaborate with content area teachers to assist them in appropriately sheltering academic content for their students.

EL assistants provide academic support in mainstream classrooms and may also assist with practice and reinforcement during ELD classes, under direct supervision of an EL teacher. They provide one-on-one or small group assistance, as needed, during class. EL assistants may also be available to help students before or after the regular school day.

Mathematics Overview

There are several reasons students should study math. First of all, math is useful in everyday life. For instance, all students will need to use math in order to do practical activities such as balancing a checkbook, calculating a tip, choosing a cell-phone plan, using a recipe, playing pool, or even building a deck. Secondly, math is important for students so that they can make informed decisions regarding finan-cial decisions within their life. Lastly, research has proven that the higher the level of math that students study the better they are quali-fied for better paying jobs in the future. Regardless, in response to state graduation Essential Skills standards, ALL students must com-plete three years of math in high school that equal Algebra 1 or higher. In addition, students must meet the minimum standards on the Smarter Balance Assessment Consortium (SBAC). Therefore, a variety of math courses are available for students at McMinnville High School. It is recommended that all students plan a math sequence that will meet their present needs and future goals (keeping in mind the Essential Skills requirements and the four-year university minimum requirement of successfully completing at Algebra 2 with a “C” or higher.) Students are originally placed at the math level that is determined by students’ courses completed and grades earned in middle school. Students must successfully meet the requirements of their current level before they are recommended for the next level. Essential Skills Assessment State graduation requirements state that students must demonstrate proficiency in identified essential skills to receive the Standard, Honors, Basic, or Modified diploma. By their junior year students must meet the minimum standards on the Smarter Balance Assessment. Therefore, it is important that students focus on their work. In order to provide additional support, incoming 9th graders that are below the state standard will be assigned to “Everyday Algebra” in which they will have an ‘Algebra 1’ class and an ‘Algebra Study Skills’ class.

Science Overview

All students are required to take three years (6 semesters) of science. The science curriculum is designed to help students under-stand and appreciate nature by systematically gathering and interpreting data. Why study science? First of all, everyone, no matter what career path we choose, has to be able to think scientifically in order to get through life. Whether it is deciding what to eat or drink or deciding where to live, using scientific methods to acquire accu-rate information about the world helps each of us to make the most informed and therefore, best decision. Next, as citizens in the United States, we all make decisions that affect the well-being of everyone including electing public officials to voting on is-sues such as nuclear power and global warming. Finally, by making the decision to purchase or not to purchase food products that contain certain types of chemicals and hormones gives us the final say whether or not food producers will continue or not.

Social Sciences Overview

The ultimate goal of the Social Science department is to develop students as functioning citizens of the United States, create analytical thinkers and help build an appreciation of other peoples and cultures from around the world. In the social sciences courses, students have the opportuni-ty to discover more about the world they live in. They will explore how humans interact and how the students’ themselves are connected to and different from those who have come before them. They will examine who we are as a nation and what are our values and traditions are. They will attempt to understand how we got to be the way we are and whether or not we have found unity within all of the diversity that exists here. Students will evaluate individuals and groups for their contributions to our progress and development. Finally, they will be able to identify the achievements we have had as a nation and evaluate where we have failed and what we need to do to change. In examining these issues, social sciences courses engage students in the study of history, geography, economics, government, and civics. Alternative courses also draw on other disciplines such as political science, psychology, and religion.

World Languages Overview

Why Study World Languages? Research has shown that math and verbal SAT scores climb higher with each additional year of world language

study, which means that the longer you study a world language, the stronger your skills become to succeed in school. Plus, three years of a

world language on your transcript will catch the eye of anyone reading your job or college application.

Studying a world language also will better prepare you for a success in future employment. More and more businesses work closely with com-

panies in other countries. They need many different kinds of workers who can communicate in different languages and understand other cul-

tures. No matter what career you choose, if you've learned a second language, you'll have a real advantage. An employer is much more likely to

hire someone who can speak a second language over someone who can speak only one language no matter what line of work you choose.
