High School Course Selection
Course Guidebooks assist high school students, families, teachers, and school counselors to select courses and college, career, and life readiness opportunities in a sequence that best meets the needs of each student. A pathway that correlates with students’ interests and aptitudes leads to the achievement of college, career, and life readiness goals.
Students are encouraged to choose courses that will stretch, challenge, and allow them to explore all available opportunities while meeting RCAS graduation requirements.
