Some classes have grade-level restrictions. A student should checkto see if he/she is eligible to take the course.C. A one semester course is worth ½ credit. A full year course isworth 1 credit.D. Courses which meet 4 year college entrance requirements aredesigned as college preparatory.Pre Advanced Placement and Advanced Placement Courses are available for studentswho want to experience a higher-level thinking curriculum.Academic ProgramFlowing Wells High School provides comprehensive educational and extracurricularprograms that will prepare students for their post-secondary goals. It is the intent of theFWHS program to fully involve students for four years. It is important that students plantheir four-year curriculum in order to take advantage of the scope and depth of thecourse offerings. The FWHS counselors will assist in the development of the students’four-year plan early in their freshman year. The four-year plans are included asappendices and are designed only to meet high school graduation requirements in theFlowing Wells School District. College entrance requirements, job skill development, andspecial interests can be included within the framework in the elective areas.Four Year PlansStudents will work with their counselors and the career center counselor to develop aEducation Career and Action Plan (ECAP). Please carefully review the plan for yourgraduating class. A total of 22 credits are needed for the Blue diploma and 23 credits forthe Gold diploma. (See page 17 for specific criteria)Admission TestingACT, SAT and COMPASS Testing are tests used by colleges and universities to aid themin making admission decisions. Colleges consider more than test scores, grade averagesand class rank; quality of the four-year transcript, involvement in community and school,leadership activities, and recommendations are also considered.Colleges accept the highest set of scores from an applicant so early testing isrecommended as it allows time for retesting. Many colleges publish the score ranges ofadmitted students and will admit new students whose scores fall below those ranges onlyif there are other compelling reasons to warrant admission. ACT/SAT tests should betaken in the spring of junior year to meet admissions and financial aid deadlines.8

Arizona’s Assessment ProgramFirst year 9 th grade students will take the Stanford 10 Test in April. This is a timed test oflanguage arts and math skills. Sophomores will take the AIMS tests in reading, writingand math. All regular education students must meet the standard on all three tests toreceive a diploma.Arizona public university basic entrance requirementsStudents who are planning to attend an Arizona public university can consult with thecounseling staff concerning entrance placement exams. The college preparatoryrequirements for Arizona universities include the following mandatory courses andcredits for high school graduates: 4 credits college preparatory English 4 credits Mathematics (Algebra 1-2, Geometry, Algebra 3-4, and advanced mathfor which Algebra 3-4 is a prerequisite) 3 credits Lab Science 2 credits Social Studies 2 credits of the same Foreign Language 1 credit Fine ArtsPlease check with your university of choice for updated information. Students applying toin-state schools are strongly encouraged to apply by October 1 st of their senior year.Out-of-state and private college/university admissionsOut-of-state and private colleges/universities differ considerably in depth and breadth ofrequirements. Interested students should consult the college website for moreinformation about application deadlines and admissions requirements because somecolleges may require SAT II tests in addition to ACT or SAT. Many colleges have firmdeadlines. The student should check with the college.GPA/weighted gradesA student’s cumulative weighted grade point average (GPA) will be used to determinehis/her class ranking. In determining the grade point average the following scale will beissued: A = 4, B = 3, C = 2, D = 1 and F = 0. Flowing Wells High School recognizes thatsome courses are designed to be more challenging. As a result, some courses may receiveweighted grades. The weighted grade scale is: A = 4.5, B = 3.5, C = 2.5, D= 1.5 and F = 0.Courses that are weighted are Advanced Placement (AP) and Pre-AP classes andAcademic Decathlon.Middle school/junior high gradesSome students take high school credit courses while enrolled in Flowing Wells JuniorHigh School and Altar Valley Middle School. The Flowing Wells School Districtrecognizes this effort and applies the following rules for the students’ high schooltranscript and GPA; The final grade the student earns at the end of each semester will be recorded on thestudent’s high school transcript. This does average into the high school GPA. Junior high school grades that qualify for high school credit will average into the highschool GPA. Students coming from other middle/junior high schools may earn high school creditby exam.9

Advanced Placement (AP) CoursesAdvanced Placement courses follow a nationally recognized curriculum. This curriculumis designed to be college level. In May, a comprehensive test is offered in each subjectwhere students may earn college credit. Each AP course has a $36 fee associated to helpoffset the cost of the exam. College credit is determined by each college or university andvaries in the type and amount of credit.Students should contact the colleges and universities of their choice for information as towhether credit is given and if so, on the amount of credit available. Some recent researchindicates that students with high PSAT, ACT and SAT scores will do well on theAdvanced Placement exams. The research indicates that these higher scores are betterpredictors of AP exam success than a student’s GPA.Pre AP coursesPre AP classes have the curricular design to meet required Arizona State Standards, aswell as proficiency standards. Teachers will offer opportunities for students to think at ahigher level.Information about AP can also be found at:http://apcentral.collegeboard.com/ (the official AP website)If you have any other questions, please see your teacher, an AP/Pre-AP honors teacher,your counselor, or an administrator.Arizona Academic ScholarsRequirements:An initiative of the Arizona Business and Education Coalition (ABEC), Arizona AcademicScholars is a state-wide program designed to recognize students who complete a strongcourse of study. Students who successfully complete the Arizona Academic Scholarsprogram will receive a medallion and will be acknowledged at commencementceremonies.English = 4 creditsMath = 4 credits (Algebra 1-2, Geometry, Algebra 3-4, Trig/College Algebra)Science = 3 credits of lab scienceSocial Studies = 3.5 credits (World History 1-2, US History 1-2, AmericanGovernment 1-2, Economics)Foreign Language = 2 credits of same languageFine Arts or CTE = 2 credits of eitherA student must earn a C or better in Scholar courses AND meet all other districtgraduation requirements.10

Pima community college classesFWHS students may take classes at Pima Community College for dual credit. Dual creditis receiving credit at PCC and FWHS. Students should consult with their counselor beforechoosing a class at PCC that will complete a required class for high school graduation.PCC will have students complete a dual enrollment form which their counselor and aFWHS administrator must sign. If this process is not followed, dual credit may not beawarded. Seniors who enroll in a PCC class during the semester they plan to graduateand who need this class to complete FWHS graduation requirements, MUST complete anEarly Grade Report Form available in the FWHS Counseling Department andcomplete the following steps:Submit the Early Grade Report Form to their PCC instructor with an envelopeduring the last week of November for the fall semester, or the third week of Aprilfor the spring semester;The instructor will complete Part II of the form, returning the completed form tothe student in the sealed envelope by the following class;The student delivers the unopened envelope to the FWHS Registrar;At the end of the course, the student needs to request an official transcript be sentto the FWHS Registrar;The request for the transcript should be made at the PCC campus AdmissionsOffice. A diploma will not be issued until an official transcript is received.All classes taken at PCC for dual credit will be included in calculating the student’s highschool GPA.Summer schoolSeveral area districts offer classes during the summer. These classes may be taken tomake up a failed class or to get a graduation requirement completed in order to makeroom for an elective. The FWHS counselor should be consulted prior to summer schoolenrollment in order to ensure that the correct classes are chosen. The Flowing WellsHigh School Summer School Schedule of Classes is typically available in April. If classesare taken out of district, it is the student’s responsibility to get an official transcript sentto the FWHS registrar as soon as course work is completed.Schedule informationAt FWHS, freshmen, sophomores, and juniors must be enrolled in six classes.Seniors must be enrolled in a minimum of five classes. Senior-plus status is earned byhaving successfully completed 18 or more credits by the start of fall semester of senioryear or 21 credits by the beginning of spring semester.Dropping a classStudents may not drop a class after the first week of the semester.Student aide positionsStudents may only earn 1.0 credit as a student aide. Students may also earn 1.0 credit asa cadet teacher. Students wishing to become aides must have junior/senior standing anda cumulative GPA of 3.0 or greater.11

Schedule changesOnce a schedule is made, it will not be changed without administrative approval. TheFWHS administration reserves the right to change student schedules without parentpermission in order to better balance class size, create a safer environment, or for anyother reason to improve the education of the student and the educational climate of theschool.FWHS does not make schedule changes for the following reasons: The student would prefer a different teacher. The student would prefer a class with a friend. The student would prefer their classes in a different order.FWHS does make changes for the following reasons: The student has already received credit for the same course. The student has completed a correspondence course, or summer school course. The student has failed a class required for graduation. The student did not complete appropriate prerequisite class.Pre-registrationDuring pre-registration, typically held in the early spring, students have considerablechoices in selecting their courses for the following year. Parents and students need tounderstand that there are some limitations: Some classes may not be offered as a result of low enrollment.Some classes may be cancelled due to program needs.Class schedules are typically determined by seniority of grade—senior schedulesare determined first, then juniors, then sophomores, and finally freshmen. As aresult, some freshmen may not receive their requested electives. Alternateelectives will be used in the order listed by the student on the pre-registrationsheet.Some classes offer limited enrollment because of the facility (for example, use ofthe weight room, computer room, or culinary arts kitchen).When students do not receive their requested course(s), their alternate choice(s)will be used as a guide. Counselors will make selections based on availability forstudents who fail to note their alternative courses.Students are expected to remain enrolled in their chosen courses. All courses,except those specifically noted, are year-long commitments.Summer registrationAfter student schedules have been printed in June, there are increasing limitations forschedule changes primarily because most classes will be full. Students will not be addedto classes that are at capacity.RegistrationIn late July and early August, the focus of the Counseling Office is to assist students newto FWHS. Students new to FWHS will be added to required classes, but elective classeswill be limited. Times for returning students to request changes to their schedules will belimited and students will need to check with the FWHS Counseling Department on theavailability of classes.12

FWHS problem solving processIt is expected that students and parents will work with the teachers and counselors whenencountering difficulties. It is a rare occasion when a schedule change is completed afterthe first five days and is only done when it is determined that: The student is making a sincere effort to do the work in the class and is attendingthe class regularly. The student is regularly making contact with the teacher in the classroom andattending tutoring in order to ask for assistance. The student and parents have worked with the teacher to understand the scopeand nature of the problems causing difficulties. The student and parents have consulted with the counselor, so that the counselorcan offer general support and can talk to the teacher with the student.If it is agreed that there has been consistent effort by and communication between thestudent, parents, teacher, and counselor, then it may be necessary for the administrationto approve a schedule change. This will be done through a meeting set up by thecounselor that includes an administrator, the teacher, the counselor, the student andparent.Outside creditStudents who are enrolled in non-FWHS classes must obtain permission prior toenrolling for courses that will be used towards graduation requirements. Transcriptsmust be received by the FWHS registrar by April 1 st of senior year. Students should firstcontact an FWHS counselor. The student may not be allowed to participate incommencement if these steps are not followed.Reasons for taking coursework outside of FWHS include: FWHS does not offer the course. The student’s schedule contains a conflict. The course will further develop the student’s career or college opportunities. The student needs or wants to take more than six courses.Students may only earn 2 outside credits (4 classes) that will count toward graduation.Students will not be given permission to substitute a course FWHS offers.Correspondence classesCorrespondence classes are offered by several institutions in both required and electiveareas. Students may enroll to enrich their curriculum by taking classes not offered atFWHS, to work towards completion of an approved early graduation plan, or to make upfor failed classes.Students need to meet with counselors for information on approved correspondenceprograms and registration procedures. Students must get approval before enrolling in aclass that will be used for graduation credit. Students must complete a CorrespondenceClass Policy form with their counselor before registering for a correspondence course.Seniors taking correspondence classes needed for graduation must complete the courseby December 1 st and April 1 st of their senior year. Students may not participate incommencement ceremonies with their class if a final transcript is not received by thedeadline.13
