The Course Catalog is developed each year to provide students and their families the necessary information for making sound choices in course selection. We hope that we have adequately described our courses, credit values, any prerequisites, and relevant recommendations in a manner that will enable students and parents to make challenging but appropriate course selections. We have included a work page for the drafting of a Four-Year Plan of Studies. Information has also been included to address Graduation Requirements, Athletic Eligibility, and a host of other related topics.
Our master schedule of classes and teacher assignments are student driven. Courses are offered and teaching staff assigned to those courses based upon the number of students who request to take them. Schedule changes can seriously impact class sizes and course offerings. Please understand before selections are made that schedule changes will only be approved by the administration if it is determined that a student was misplaced, a technical error was made during data entry, a master schedule change closed or changed a course, a failed course must be rescheduled or a summer school course must be replaced.
It is crucial that each family give careful consideration to the courses that a student must take in high school in order to meet graduation requirements, prepare for post-secondary education and/or the world of work.
Please take the time to ask questions of our professional staff to make the best, most informed decisions. We stand ready to assist each family with charting a course towards success. It is my wish that each school year brings many new and exciting opportunities for every student at Rocky River High School. Many of those opportunities are found in this Course Catalog. Course selection each year can be a stressful time for students and parents. Communication is a critical component in this process and can help make a stressful time much easier and enjoyable.
