MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL<br />
Dear Students and Parents,<br />
This Options Book is our way of sharing with you the courses and various educational programs/policies<br />
that students follow throughout their years at Brecksville-Broadview Heights High School. It is our best<br />
attempt at compiling all the current information so students and parents can plan appropriately for the next<br />
few years. And students: it should serve as a valuable resource as you plan and schedule for your high<br />
school years and beyond. Careful planning and thoughtful decision-making will make your high school<br />
experience positive as you build a solid educational foundation for the future. Special attention should be<br />
directed at the Course Planning Guide located on the last few pages of this booklet-it’s a great planning tool.<br />
We are very proud of the comprehensive programming we are able to offer to each individual student. A<br />
variety of opportunities exist across the curriculum, from required courses in the core academics to electives<br />
in all areas of interest. You would be wise to select courses that we recommend: (1) fulfill graduation<br />
requirements, (2) best prepare you for your future, and (3) are areas of personal interest. If you have questions<br />
or concerns, please ask any staff member for assistance. We are here to serve you! I encourage you<br />
to get involved and take advantage of all facets of our school program. Enjoy your high school experience<br />
and best wishes for success at BBHHS. For your convenience, this document can also be found on the<br />
school’s web page at www.bbhcsd.org.<br />
Yours in education,<br />
Joseph J. Mueller, Principal<br />

GENERAL INFORMATION<br />
PLANNING YOUR SCHEDULE<br />
Planning your schedule for high school requires yearly self-appraisal. You must examine your interests<br />
and goals. Study the various curricular offerings and the prerequisites needed to undertake the next desired<br />
step in the educational process. Our curriculum is flexible in that a student may elect subjects from various<br />
departments. There should be a basic plan of related subjects that will provide a foundation for your<br />
projected post-high school goals.<br />
Read the enclosed material carefully and thoughtfully. Your counselor, teachers, and parents will aid you<br />
in any way possible. To prepare for admission to any one of Ohio’s public or private four-year colleges or<br />
universities, it is recommended that students meet the following minimum college preparatory program:<br />
English<br />
Mathematics<br />
Social Studies<br />
Science<br />
World Languages<br />
The Arts<br />
4 credits<br />
4 credits<br />
3 credits<br />
3 credits (2 Lab Sciences)<br />
2 credits*<br />
1 credit**<br />
*Various colleges recommend additional world language preparation. Check with your guidance counselor<br />
and colleges/universities of your choice for additional information.<br />
**Examples are: Acting, Art, Humanities, Instrumental Music, Music Appreciation, Music Theory,<br />
Photography, Theatre, and Vocal Music.<br />
Students who are hoping to complete a high school program, which will prepare them for the world of<br />
work upon graduation, should study the descriptions of the courses offered in the Business and Vocational/<br />
Technical Education Departments. Those whose plans are undecided are urged to study all offerings of<br />
the high school, to discuss alternatives with parents, teachers, friends and other interested persons, and to<br />
seek assistance from the school counselors.<br />
The requirements for admission to more selective colleges include more academic credits in each course<br />
of study than the minimum suggested. To be certain of the requirements of selective schools, contact your<br />
guidance counselor or the college or university. Many professional programs require more high school<br />
preparation in related areas. For example, to qualify for admission to an engineering program, it is advisable<br />
to have four years of college preparatory math, chemistry and physics. Talk with your counselor to be sure<br />
of other such programs.<br />
Course offerings and class times will be subject to change pending the approval of the Board of Education.<br />
GUIDANCE COUNSELING SERVICES<br />
Guidance counseling services are an integral part of the Brecksville-Broadview Heights schools. Efforts<br />
are made by the staff to assist students in recognizing interests, capabilities, and achievements, and to make<br />
available pertinent information that will be of value in selecting courses.<br />
The counselors periodically review each student’s course selections, and, coupled with the recommendations<br />
of the staff, assist each student to meet graduation requirements and to formulate realistic goals.<br />
Parent cooperation and participation is a vital part of the counseling program. Counselors invite and welcome<br />
parents throughout the year for conferences and especially during the registration period each year. The<br />
parent may make appointments with the student’s counselor any school day during normal school hours<br />
(7:10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.). If an appointment is desired, call the Guidance Office secretary at 740-4720 or<br />
740-4721.<br />
3
COURSE CHANGES<br />
Planning a schedule for the next school year is a difficult task and situations may occur requiring a change<br />
in that schedule. These schedule changes, however, have a serious effect on class size, teacher assignments,<br />
and the overall master-schedule, and therefore, must be made sparingly. The student and parent are urged<br />
not to plan a program with the idea that it can be changed. Once a student selects his/her courses (verified<br />
by parents) the Guidance Department will not initiate a schedule change unless a compelling educational<br />
reason exists.<br />
After the close of the school year no changes will occur unless:<br />
1. there is a technical error in the scheduling process<br />
2. it is clear that the student is academically misplaced<br />
3. there is a scheduling conflict<br />
GUIDEPOSTS TOWARD GRADUATION<br />
GRADE PLACEMENT<br />
Students will be classified by grades according to the number of credits they have accumulated. The<br />
minimum credits for grade classification will be as follows:<br />
GRADE CLASSIFICATION<br />
10th grade 5 credits<br />
11th grade 10 credits<br />
12th grade 15 credits<br />
COURSE LOAD REQUIREMENTS<br />
A student should be aware of his/her personal progress each year, so graduation can be attained. In order to<br />
make satisfactory progress toward receiving a diploma each student must be enrolled in a minimum of 5.25<br />
credits per year. An average class load is between 5.50 and 6 credits per year. Students must schedule<br />
enough course credits to assure no more than one (1) study hall per day (excluding lab science study<br />
halls). Algebra I taken at the middle school will count toward the 4 credits of math required for graduation.<br />
Students may receive one elective credit for a full year of the first year of a world language taken at the<br />
middle school. World language, Algebra I and Honors Physical Science taken at the middle school are not<br />
part of the cumulative grade point average for high school. Honors Geometry will be calculated into the<br />
cumulative GPA.<br />

one-half unit, consisting<br />
of at least 60 hours of<br />
instruction, in another<br />
course of study.
REQUIRED SUBJECTS<br />
Required subjects must be taken during the school year at Brecksville-Broadview Heights High School.<br />
Students who fail a required course during the school year should arrange to repeat the course in summer<br />
school or night school.<br />
FOUR-YEAR PROGRAM OUTLINE<br />
The four-year plan given below is provided for use by the students and parents in planning the four-year<br />
program of studies. Included are subjects that are required by the State of Ohio and the Brecksville-<br />
Broadview Heights Board of Education. Note that these are suggested minimum course loads and<br />
should only be used as a guide in your planning. Specific course selection and course loads should be<br />
determined by individual needs, abilities, and interests. (Note: Algebra I and world languages taken at<br />
the middle school will be granted credit but will not be calculated into the cumulative GPA. Honors<br />
Geometry and Honors Physical Science will be calculated into the cumulative GPA.)<br />

PREREQUISITES<br />
In order to enroll in any course, a student must meet the requirements (prerequisites) for admission to<br />
that course. These are included in the description for the course.<br />
ACADEMIC <strong>OPTIONS</strong><br />
ADVANCED PLACEMENT COURSES<br />
Advanced Placement (AP) courses are part of a program of college-level courses and exams that give<br />
high school students the opportunity to receive credit and/or advanced placement in college. Students<br />
enrolling in AP courses should expect to develop analytical reasoning skills and study the subject matter<br />
in great depth. Approval for enrolling will be based on student ability, past performance, counselor and/<br />
or teacher recommendation, and prerequisite courses. Because of the difficulty of these courses and the<br />
time demands involved, grades of “A”, “B”, or “C”, on a student’s report cards will receive an extra<br />
weight in the computation of the grade point average. Students are required to take the AP exam in<br />
the spring. The test costs approximately $94. Based on the score of the exam, college credit may be<br />
earned. (“A” = 5 points, “B” = 4 points, “C” = 3 points, “D” = 1 point, and “F” = 0 point). AP weight<br />
will be assigned to the GPA upon completion of the AP exams.<br />
For information about specific colleges’/ universities’ credit plans, google search “AP credit policies.”<br />

CAREER CENTER ENROLLMENT<br />
The Cuyahoga Valley Career Center program is an extension of Brecksville-Broadview Heights High<br />
School. Students who wish to enroll in a two-year program at the Career Center must submit their applications<br />
during January of their sophomore year. These applications will be reviewed by the Guidance<br />
Department and the placement of students in the various programs will be determined. Students accepted<br />
into a Career Center program continue to attend Brecksville-Broadview Heights High School for part of<br />
their school day.<br />
Students must attend the Career Center when it is in session even though Brecksville-Broadview Heights<br />
High School is not. Brecksville-Broadview Heights High School must be attended when it is in session<br />
even though CVCC is not in session.<br />
Most of the career and technical programs are two years in length. Students may enter for one year, but it<br />
is preferred that students continue toward completing the entire two year program. A complete listing of<br />
career and technical course offerings can be found in this Options Book.<br />
Sophomores and/or juniors who are interested will find complete course descriptions pertaining to the<br />
programs offered at the Cuyahoga Valley Career Center in the High School Programs booklet provided by<br />
the career center as well as this Options Book. A brief description of each of the programs may be found<br />
throughout this booklet along with the sample Program of Study for each program. If there are additional<br />
questions, see your guidance counselor.<br />
SUMMER SCHOOL<br />
A student may earn no more than two remedial credits per year in summer school. “A maximum student<br />
load shall be no more than one new unit per summer, with a maximum of four such units counting toward<br />
graduation,” in compliance with the State of Ohio minimum standards. The Principal of Brecksville-<br />
Broadview Heights High School or his designee must approve enrollment in any summer school program.<br />
This option may be limited to online courses only.<br />
EVENING SCHOOL<br />
No pupil enrolled full-time in Brecksville-Broadview Heights High School shall be permitted to earn<br />
credit in evening high school classes except under prior written permission, granted by the Principal or<br />
his designee. Availability may be limited.<br />
ONLINE INSTRUCTION<br />
One potential option for students to earn credit for core coursework that they have failed is through select<br />
online credit recovery programs. Courses are available at student/parent’s expense. For students who<br />
are not successful in the typical schooling offerings, BBHCSD now offers an online program. See your<br />
counselor for further details.<br />
CREDIT FLEXIBILITY<br />
Credit Flexibility enables students to earn high school credit based on the demonstration of subject<br />
competency. Students may complete coursework, test out of a course, or pursue educational options. Please<br />
see the proposal process on the web site or discuss this option with your counselor. Deadlines are August<br />
1 (for fall) , November 1 (for spring) and March 1 (for summer).<br />
COLLEGE CREDIT PLUS<br />
College Credit Plus (CCP), provides free full and part-time college credit to secondary school students who<br />
meet the admission requirements of a partnering college. Students that choose this option are enrolled in<br />
high school and college. Any student interested in this program should contact his/her guidance counselor<br />
before February 1st for application information. Students must select a 15 or 30 semester hour career<br />
6
pathway which will be determined in cooperation with local colleges. Students and parents must attend a<br />
mandatory evening counseling session on 1/30/2017 if they are interested in the program for the following<br />
year. The make-up meeting will be on 2/1/2017 at 6:45am in the HS LGI. All of the information regarding<br />
College Credit Plus program is available on the web site.<br />
REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION AND COMMENCEMENT<br />
The State of Ohio and the Brecksville-Broadview Heights Board of Education have prescribed minimum<br />
requirements for a diploma. Students not meeting the minimum course requirements will NOT be permitted<br />
to participate in commencement exercises.<br />
EARLY GRADUATION<br />
Students who desire to graduate from Brecksville-Broadview Heights High School in three or three and<br />
one-half years must submit a letter of intent from their parents. Application forms are available in the<br />
Guidance Office. This letter of intent must be submitted during the sophomore year. The counselors will<br />
work closely with students and parents to develop a program, which is in compliance with the standards<br />
for graduation set forth by the State of Ohio and the Brecksville-Broadview Heights Board of Education.<br />
NAVIANCE PORTFOLIO/PRE-COLLEGE TESTING PROGRAMS<br />
All students will be asked to develop and complete an online portfolio beginning in their Freshman year.<br />
As part of the process, students will develop a resume and a list of appropriate professional references in<br />
Naviance. Throughout their years at the high school, students are encouraged to collect other appropriate<br />
documents to enhance their portfolio. Awards, certificates, samples of work, a transcript and letters of<br />
recommendation may be scanned, saved and viewed in their Naviance document library. When students<br />
present their portfolio during an employment, scholarship or college interview, they are providing college<br />
admissions officers or potential employers with a solid representation of their interests, abilities, and<br />
career plans.<br />
We feel it is important to help guide our students through testing experiences that will familiarize them<br />
with both types of the national pre-college testing programs, the ACT, and the College Board’s SATs.<br />
There are preliminary versions of both, and through the first three years of high school, on a designated<br />
Test Day, we will administer these standardized tests to prepare our students. The goal is to ready students<br />
in the junior year, usually for the fall PSAT, and later the junior year, usually for the fall PSAT, and later<br />
the junior year, the ACT and/or SAT. Students should reference the ACT College Readiness standards at<br />
www.act.org/standard.<br />
SENIOR INFORMATION<br />
Each 12th grader is required to complete paperwork necessary for graduation. Important activities for<br />
this take place in mid-September of the senior year. Our counselors will present key information in all<br />
senior English classes. Seniors will need to: fill out and sign the Petition Form for Graduation, and Honors<br />
Diploma Worksheet which will go to their counselors for final review; know the action steps they must<br />
begin taking to become admitted to a college, apprenticeship, military position, or other post-graduation<br />
plan; and, become familiar with the electronic tool Naviance, which is a system for managing most of<br />
the applications and planning. A Transcript Release Form must be signed for almost any plan for after<br />
graduation. All families have the option of meeting with their counselors individually.<br />

REPORT CARDS<br />
The school year consists of two semesters. Each semester is divided into two nine-week grading periods for reporting<br />
pupil progress to parents. Gradebook access is available to parents and students and includes options for<br />
setting up alerts for missing assignments. Report cards will be posted electronically through Gradebook.<br />
CUMULATIVE GRADE POINT AVERAGE<br />
The cumulative grade point average (GPA) is based on a 4.00 scale on SEMESTER GRADES ONLY.<br />
Subjects not considered in the GPA are: all assistant programs, Physical Education elective courses, and<br />
Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory courses. Merit Roll equals a 3.00-3.74 GPA and Honor Roll equals a 3.75 or<br />
above GPA. A grade of D, U or WF precludes a student’s being included on Merit and Honor Roll.<br />

COURSE WITHDRAWAL POLICY<br />
Course Change Forms are available in the Guidance Office and, although used sparingly, may result in a<br />
withdrawal from a course if approved. Student, teacher, counselor and parent sections must be completed<br />
for a course withdrawal to be considered. Schedule changes for reasons other than technical errors, conflicts,<br />
inappropriate placement, or other legitimate educational reasons will not be considered.<br />
In order for a subject to be removed completely from the transcript, a student must withdraw within a time<br />
limit prescribed as follows:<br />
Semester courses sixth through sixteenth day<br />
Year courses sixth through thirty-sixth day<br />
If a student withdraws from a subject after the prescribed time limit, a “WF” (Withdraw-Failing) will appear<br />
on the report card and transcript regardless of the grade earned at the time of withdrawal. The “WF”<br />
grade will continue to be a part of the student’s grade point average.<br />
Course changes involving adding courses are recommended only up to the 1st interim. PE additions are<br />
allowed only up to the first 2 weeks of the semester.<br />
9
SATISFACTORY/UNSATISFACTORY OPTION<br />
The “S/U” option is the opportunity given to a junior or senior to select one (1) unit of credit or less in nonrequired<br />
subjects for credit each year in which the grade will be either “Satisfactory” or “Unsatisfactory”.<br />
In addition, any student in grades 10-12 may take an additional S/U option for a music course, excluding<br />
music theory and music appreciation.“Satisfactory” (S) will require a “C” or higher for credit; this translates<br />
into an average of at least 73%. An average below 73% will result in an “Unsatisfactory” (U). This option<br />
is not available for honors or advanced placement courses.<br />
“Satisfactory or Unsatisfactory” credit will be included in the total credits being taken by the student, but<br />
will not be figured into the grade point average or class rank. Therefore, the “S/U” option does not figure<br />
into the GPA to determine a student’s eligibility; however it will count toward the 5-credit course requirement<br />
that also determines eligibility.<br />
The student’s declaration for “S/U” must be made prior to the end of September for the first semester or<br />
year-long courses and the applications must be approved by the student’s counselor and Assistant Principal.<br />
During the second semester, students have the first ten school days to select this option. Applications are available in the<br />
Guidance Office.<br />
ATHLETIC AND INTERSCHOLASTIC EXTRACURRICULAR ELIGIBILITY<br />
Students are required to maintain a minimum grade point average of 1.5 in order to be eligible to<br />
participate in any interscholastic extracurricular activity (grades 7-12) within the Brecksville-Broadview<br />
Heights City School District. The grade point average of each grading period (quarter grades) will be<br />
used to determine eligibility. The eligibility of a student will continue until the grades are released to the<br />
athletic office, at which time the grades from the immediately preceding grading period become effective.<br />
EXCEPTION: Eligibility or ineligibility for the first grading period commences with the start of the fall<br />
sports season.<br />
Summer school grades earned may not be used to recalculate a student’s GPA from the last grading period<br />
of the regular school year.<br />
Additionally, eligibility requirements for participating in athletic programs must conform to the<br />
policies, rules/regulations, and limitations outlined by the Ohio High School Athletic Association.<br />
Specifically, during the preceding grading period, the student must have received passing grades in<br />
a minimum of FIVE one-credit courses or the equivalent, which count toward graduation. Please<br />
keep in mind that Physical Education courses are .25 credit for a semester which does not fulfill the<br />
requirement.<br />
Because NCAA eligibility requirements are subject to change, it is imperative that students interested in<br />
collegiate athletics (seniors and/or their parents) consult with their respective guidance counselor about the<br />
NCAA application process. If students know freshman year that they may be a Division I or II athlete, they<br />
need to communicate that to their guidance counselor so adequate planning can take place.<br />
HONOR SOCIETIES<br />
Students must have a 3.6 overall grade point average to be considered for National Honor Society. Students<br />
who enroll in the basic or general level courses shall not be eligible for membership in the National Honor<br />
Society.<br />
The following courses are considered general level courses for NHS eligibility purposes: Reading, Physical<br />
Science, Biology, Algebra 1 Blocked, Geometry Block, Trigonometry/Math Applications.<br />
Students at BBHHS are fortunate to have opportunities to join National Art Honor Society, Tri-M Music<br />
Honorary, and National Vocational Technical Honor Society.<br />

END-OF-COURSE EXAMS – CLASS OF 2018 AND BEYOND<br />
Ohio is creating a challenging assessment system to track student progress through the elementary and<br />
high school years and to ensure that students will graduate high school with 21st century knowledge<br />
and skills. Assessments will be computer-based and aligned to the New Learning Standards for English<br />
Language Arts and Mathematics. Students in the Class of 2018 and beyond will take Ohio Department<br />
of Education sanctioned end of course exams in 7 areas: Algebra I, Geometry, American History, English<br />
1, 2, Physical Science, and American Government. Students studying Advanced Placement (AP) courses<br />
in physical science, American history or American government may take assessments aligned to those<br />
courses in lieu of end-of-course exams to avoid double testing. A student who earned high school credit in<br />
any of the above courses before July 1, 2014, automatically will receive a score of three points per course<br />
exam toward the total points needed for graduation. Students must also meet one of the following three:<br />
1. Earn a cumulative passing score on seven end-of-course exams. The scores will be set by the<br />
State Board of Education.<br />
2. Earn a “remediation-free” score on a nationally recognized college admission exam such as<br />
ACT or SAT. The State of Ohio will pay for all 11th-grade students in the Class of 2018 and<br />
beyond to take the exam free of charge.<br />
3. Earn a State Board of Education-approved, industry-recognized credential or a state-issued<br />
license for practice in a career and achieve a score that demonstrates workforce readiness and<br />
employability on a job skills assessment.<br />
SENIOR INTERNSHIP OPTION<br />
Senior Internship Option is an opportunity for students to participate in an independent study project during<br />
the last three weeks of senior year. Seniors can pursue practical educational experiences of interest to them.<br />
The work must be voluntary and there may be no monetary or other compensation. The time required for<br />
the project must meet or exceed thirty hours per week. Other requirements include:<br />
1. The student must design a program that will enable him or her to pursue professional interests<br />
in an educational and practical way-it should be related to the student’s career path.<br />
2. The student must arrange for a community advisor to sponsor a daily work experience during<br />
the project period of three weeks. It is recommended that an immediate relative not be chosen<br />
as community sponsors; the student must see their assistant principal or the principal to discuss<br />
the additional requirements for such cases.<br />
3. The student must arrange for a school (faculty) advisor to provide guidance, feedback, and assure<br />
student accountability regarding fulfillment of the project guideline requirements.<br />
4. The student must meet the minimum requirements listed below.<br />
5. The student must complete the preliminary application form and return it their assistant principal<br />
within the deadline.<br />
6. The student will receive a mark of “S” (Satisfactory) or “U” (Unsatisfactory) upon completion<br />
of the symposium presentation. This mark will appear on the student’s transcript listed under<br />
Senior Internship Option.<br />
7. If, at any time, either the faculty advisor or the community advisor determines that the minimum<br />
expectations for the Senior Internship are not being met, the student will be dropped from the<br />
program and will be required to attend school for the remainder of the school year.<br />
8. For specific questions, contact a building administrator.<br />

SPECIAL SERVICES<br />
CAREER DEVELOPMENT<br />
Naviance is a comprehensive system for students and families to use to make plans about colleges and<br />
careers. The guidance office uses Naviance to track and analyze data about college and career plans<br />
by providing up-to-date information that’s specific to our school. Naviance is also the mechanism by<br />
which we share information with students and families about upcoming meetings and events, local<br />
scholarship and volunteer opportunities, and other resources for college and career information.<br />
Family Connection within Naviance allows our students to:<br />
• Get involved in the planning and advising process – Build a resume, complete online<br />
surveys, and manage timelines and deadlines for making decisions about colleges and<br />
careers.<br />
• Research colleges – Compare GPA, standardized test scores and other statistics to actual<br />
historical data from our school for students who have applied and been admitted in the<br />
past.<br />
• Research careers – Research hundreds of careers and career clusters, and take career<br />
assessments.<br />
• Create plans for the future – Create goals and to-dos, and complete tasks assigned by the<br />
school to better prepare your student for future college and career goals.<br />
PROGRAMS OF STUDY<br />
Within each department or subject area, you will find a Program of Study listed. The Program of Study<br />
is designed to provide a “road map” for the student. It shows how a student can meet Ohio high school<br />
graduation requirements and still take elective courses in a career area of interest. Each Program of Study<br />
shows grades 9-12 course requirements and electives, related organization/activities suggestions, and<br />
postsecondary options ranging from entry level career options to two or four year degree options.<br />
COMPUTER LABS<br />
Students have access to computer labs during the day. One lab is located on the second floor and one on<br />
the ground floor. Students may also use the Media Center computers. These areas are open before school<br />
and after school daily.<br />
Wireless laptops are available in the Media Center and in many classroooms. Students accessing the<br />
district wireless services at any time in any location are subject to the district acceptable use policy and<br />
code of conduct.<br />
12
MEDIA CENTER<br />
The mission of the Media Center is to ensure that students and staff members are effective users of information<br />
and technology. This mission is accomplished by providing access to materials in all formats, by<br />
providing instruction to foster competence and stimulate interest in reading, viewing and using information<br />
and ideas, and by collaborating with the educational staff to design learning strategies to meet the needs<br />
of the individual students. Access to the Media Center web page at http://www.bbhcsd.org/high/media is a<br />
gateway to linking all of the media resources. Home use passwords and specific web addresses are available<br />
on a reference sheet that is available in the media center. Additionally, the media center circulates a<br />
variety of audiovisual and technology equipment to both students and staff. A professional library media<br />
specialist and support staff are available to students and staff each day.<br />
HEALTH SERVICES<br />
A registered nurse and nurse aide are available at the high school. The school nurse and aide work closely<br />
with parents, school personnel, students, doctors and other members of the community. Each school year<br />
students must submit emergency medical authorizations. This information is entered by parents/guardians<br />
in an online format where the information can be linked to siblings. These must be updated when there is<br />
a change of address, phone number or physician information. First aid and emergency care are provided<br />
for the students during the school day. The school nurse does not dispense any medications, except when<br />
necessary in accordance with the Board of Education policy on school personnel administering drugs<br />
prescribed by physicians.<br />

CUYAHOGA VALLEY CAREER CENTER<br />
The Cuyahoga Valley Career Center is an extension of<br />
Brecksville-Broadview Heights High School and offers<br />
students a variety of career and technical education programs<br />
during their junior and senior years. These programs are<br />
designed to provide students with marketable technical skills<br />
and preparation for a career or further education making use<br />
of those skills. Upon graduation from high school, students are<br />
ready for immediate employment or for continued training in<br />
their chosen field in an apprenticeship, at a technical institute<br />
or at a two- or four-year college. Entry to CVCC programs is<br />
by application through the guidance office.<br />
Earning College Credit<br />
There are several opportunities for students to earn college<br />
credits for the career-technical coursework taken at CVCC. Most programs at CVCC are designated “Ohio College Tech<br />
Prep” (identified in the program listings by the ◆ symbol), in which students can earn transcripted college credit that<br />
is transferrable to any public two- or four-year college in Ohio. Students must meet specific requirements to qualify,<br />
including a 3.0 or better GPA at CVCC, completion of Algebra II or higher, and a 2.0 overall GPA. In addition, some<br />
CVCC programs are approved by the Ohio Board of Regents as “Career Technical Credit Transfer” courses (identified in<br />
the program listings by CT2). In these courses, students can earn credit in equivalent college courses by demonstrating<br />
agreed-upon technical knowledge and skills based on recognized industry standards. The credits transfer as subjectspecific<br />
credits to any public two- or four-year institution in Ohio offering the equivalent technical course. CVCC also<br />
maintains individual agreements with several institutions that can lead to articulated college credit for CVCC coursework.<br />
A complete list can be found in the CVCC catalog or website. College-bound students should plan their four-year high<br />
school schedules carefully, so that they meet college entrance requirements and still have room in their schedule for a<br />
CVCC program.<br />
Academics/Scheduling<br />
Most CVCC programs are two years in length and generally yield 4 units of elective credit per year, although some<br />
programs carry a mix of academic and elective credits. (Credits are listed with each program description.) Students<br />
generally attend CVCC for half of each school day to take a technical course, and take regular academic courses at<br />
Brecksville-Broadview Heights High School for the other half of the day. Exceptions are noted in the course descriptions.<br />
Brecksville-Broadview Heights High School provides bus transportation to and from CVCC.<br />
Admissions Requirements<br />
Students enrolling at CVCC must have completed two years of high school by the year in which they begin a program.<br />
Students on track for graduation at the end of their sophomore year, by having completed at least seven of the fifteen<br />
core academic credits required for graduation by the Ohio Department of Education, are assigned “priority” status for<br />
enrollment. The credits must include two in Language Arts, two in Mathematics and any combination of three credits<br />
in Science, Social Studies, Health or Physical Education. Students not meeting this standard are assigned “regular”<br />
status and are accepted after all priority status students have been placed. For each regular status student, the guidance<br />
office must submit a written plan for completing graduation requirements and have received approval by the CVCC<br />
administration by the first day of school. Several CVCC programs have unique admission requirements (pre-requisite<br />
courses, grade point average, interviews, etc.) See the individual program descriptions for details. In accordance with<br />
best practices, admission of students with disabilities should be the result of an IEP/transition team meeting to which the<br />
appropriate CVCC representative has been invited.<br />
Campus Wear<br />
All CVCC students are required to purchase or rent prescribed campus wear, which must be worn while class is in<br />
session. Students in Cosmetology, Culinary Arts, Dental Assisting, Health Careers, Medical Administrative Specialist<br />
and Public Health & Safety purchase uniforms from uniform supply stores. Hotels & Resorts students purchase pants<br />
on their own, but jackets and caps are purchased through CVCC. Students in Auto Body, Auto Service Technology and<br />
Power Equipment Technology rent uniforms through CVCC. The cost is included in the class fee. All other students<br />
purchase program shirts through CVCC. Except where noted, uniform costs are not included in the listed program fees.<br />
Please note: Program fees may be subject to change. 15

(See Program of Study Page 39)<br />
English 1, 2, 3, and 4 are required of all students for graduation. In order to provide for the varied<br />
abilities and needs of students, the English program is divided into two levels - Honors and Academic.<br />
The student is not rigidly tracked, but may be changed into classes at another level should the teacher<br />
and counselor recommend this. In all grades and levels of English, students will study composition,<br />
grammar, and literature; however, there is more emphasis on grammar in ninth and tenth grade and<br />
more emphasis on literature in eleventh and twelfth. Students will write increasingly longer and more<br />
complex compositions as they move from ninth to twelfth grade. A portion of the grade in English<br />
class is dependent on class participation. Some courses may require additional reading materials to be<br />
purchased by the student. Students who leave the honors track after junior year will be recommended<br />
for Creative Writing and Modern Novel for senior year.<br />

BBHHS WORLD LANGUAGE<br />
(See Program of Study Page 53)<br />
By learning a world language, students arrive at a better understanding and appreciation of their own<br />
native language. The World Language Department offers three languages. All three have a five-year<br />
sequential program. Students are encouraged to take at least three years of one language. In the World<br />
Language department the communicative approach is emphasized; that is, the students learn to speak<br />
the world language. Cultural studies of the language are stressed. Students with less than a “C” average<br />
in English should postpone starting a language until their sophomore or junior year.<br />
