Dear Students and Parents of the Kenowa Hills School District:
This guide has been developed to aid you and your parents in making decisions as to the course of study you should take for the succeeding school
years. The selection process is extremely important. You will be enrolling into the classes you wish to take next year. Changes will be limited after
student schedules have been completed. Make your plans carefully; then stick to them. In making your choices, you should carefully consider your
interests and abilities, graduation requirements and your goals.
Considerable thought should be given to the full four-year program you will pursue. Some courses are considered essential for college enrollment.
Others are designed for mastery of job-entry and vocational skills. Still other courses are designed for personal growth, enrichment, and personal
satisfaction. Classes should be selected because they meet the goal that you have selected, not because the class meets a particular hour or because your friend is taking the same class.
As the course selections available to students increase, more thought and planning must also go into determining your schedule. You should discuss
your interests with parents, counselors, and teachers. You should ask questions and make sure that selections meet your needs. Finally, once the
schedule has been determined, do your best to put forth the time and effort that will guarantee a successful year.
Sincerely,
Katharine Pennington, Principal
Kenowa Hills High School
P.S. Please feel free to contact our Student Services Department if you have questions regarding any portion of the scheduling process (784-3604).

MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF CAREER DEVELOPMENT CAREER PATHWAYS
Kenowa Hills High School recognizes the Career Pathways system administered by the Michigan Department of Career Development.
What are Career Pathways?
Career Pathways are broad groupings of careers that share similar characteristics and whose employment requirements call for
many common interests, strengths, and competencies. Career Pathways provide a useful framework to aid students, parents, and
educators in making meaningful connections to the world of work. Six Career Pathways have been identified to cover all career opportunities regardless of educational requirements. Each Pathway has a professional and technical component. The Professional
career fields require a four-year college/university program for entry. The Technical career fields may require community college,
technical/trade school, or other post-secondary training for entry.
Each Career Pathway identifies the required courses a student must take to fulfill graduation requirements at Kenowa Hills High
School. A list of related elective courses and example career fields are also provided. Students are encouraged to think in terms
of a broad occupational area, choose the Pathway that best matches that occupational area, and then develop a program of study
from the listed electives to best prepare for that occupational area. The Kenowa Hills High School Student Services Department is
available for help and guidance.

IMPORTANCE OF ATTENDANCE
Research shows that the single greatest factor contributing to student achievement is attendance at school. While a student who is
absent from school may be able to cover a missed chapter, copy missed notes, complete missed worksheets, and receive help after
school, other important aspects of a lesson are gone forever.
Discussion, recitation, listening, note-taking, raised questions, explanations, and clarifications are among the important interactions
that are irretrievable despite the most sincere efforts at make up work.
A student’s successes depend on a solid educational background—the kind of background that can only be gained through regular
school attendance.

School if he/she fulfills the graduation requirements of this school.

DUAL ENROLLMENT
Effective April 1, 1996, Public Act 160 created the Postsecondary Enrollment Options Act, commonly referred to as dual enrollment. This law directs school discticts to assist students in paying tuition and fees for courses at Michigan
public or private colleges or universities, if all of the following conditions are met:
1.
Students are in grades 9 through grade 12.
2.
Students can qualify for dual enrollment by taking one of the following assessments: PSAT, ACTPLAN, ACT, or MME. The following table shows the complete list of scores that qualify students for dual enrollment:
Additionally, according to P.A. 160, eligible students may take courses for which there are no endorsements, such as computer science, foreign language, history, political science, or psychology, as long as they have taken all sections of the
MME, ACTPLAN, ACT or College Board PSAT.
3.
Students must be enrolled in both the school district and postsecondary institution during the local school district’s regular academic year and must be enrolled in at least one high school class.
4.
The district must not offer the college courses. An exception to this could occur if the local board of education determines that a scheduling conflict exists, which is beyond the student’s control.
5.
The college courses cannot be a hobby, craft, or recreation course, or in the subject areas of physical education, theology, divinity, or religious education.
6.
Students must have exhausted the available curricular options at the high school.
7.
School districts are required to pay the lesser of: a) the actual charge for tuition, mandatory course fees, materials fees and registration fees; or b) that state portion of the students’ foundation allowance, adjusted to the proportion of the school year they attend the postsecondary institution.
To apply for dual enrollment, a student must fill out an application, have been admitted to the post secondary institution offering the dual enrollment class, and complete the proper dual enrollment form supplied by the high school prior to
the beginning of class. In order for the district to pay for the course(s), the student must:
A.
Submit bi-weekly attendance forms with the attendance secretary (All Kenowa Hills High School attendance rules apply for dual enrollment classes.)
B.
Inform the Counseling Office Secretary if he/she desires to have the dual enrolled course grade(s) listed on the high school transcript.
Any changes in dual enrollment courses must be approved by the counselor and building principal prior to the beginning of the college semester. Without this approval, the student assumes the financial responsibility for the course(s). If
you have any questions about Dual Enrollment, please contact the high school counseling department at 784-3604.
NCAA eligibility may be affected by choosing the Dual Enrollment option.
22
OUT OF STATE COLLEGE ADMISSIONS REQUIREMENTS
Many colleges and universities have different requirements for admission. A student who expects to attend an out-of-state college
should check the appropriate college catalog for admissions requirements.
WEIGHTED GRADES
A 4.0 scale is used for calculating grade point average (GPA). Advanced Placement classes use a 5.0 scale. GPAs are figured cumulatively at the end of each semester. Weighted grades will be used for internal and external use. In practice, the scales will be as
follows:

A GUIDE TO PROGRAM SELECTION
Kenowa Hills High School offers written course descriptions. Teachers and counselors provide assistance with course selection,
are familiar with the curriculum, and are able to make estimates of success based upon a student’s academic record, motivation,
and ability level.
Many students are uncertain as to future career plans and, therefore, are unsure of what courses they should take during high
school. Early exploration in several key areas is essential; business courses, industrial or applied art courses, music, and art are
suggested electives in addition to a solid academic core of classes.
Careful course selection is important. It should reflect a student’s interests and abilities, parents’ desires, plans for the future, and a willingness to examine new ideas and experiences. The more academic and technical skills a student learns, the more
options he/she will have upon graduation from high school.

NCAA—ACADEMIC REQUIREMENTS FOR DIVISION ONE SCHOOLS—
PROPOSITION 18
A qualifier as used herein is defined as one who is a high school graduate and, at the time of graduation from high school, presented an
accumulative minimum grade point average of 2.000 based on a maximum of 4.000 in a core curriculum of at least 11 academic courses
including at least three years in English, two years in mathematics, two years in a social science and two years in natural or physical science (including at least one laboratory class, if offered by the high school) as certified on the high school transcript or by official correspondence, as well as a (minimum) 700 combined score on the SAT verbal and math sections or a (minimum) 18 composite score on the
ACT.
DEFINITION OF A CORE COURSE
For the purpose of meeting the core curriculum requirement, a “core course” is defined as a recognized academic course (as opposed to a vocational or personal
services course) that offers fundamental instructional components in a specified area of study. Courses that are taught at a level below the high school’s regular
academic instruction level (e.g., remedial, special education or compensatory) shall not be considered as core courses regardless of course content.
ENGLISH
Core courses in English shall contain instructional elements in the following areas: grammar, vocabulary
development, composition, literature, analytical reading or oral communication.
MATHEMATICS
Core courses in mathematics must be designed to develop a student’s basic ability to formulate and solve
mathematical problems in courses such as: mathematics, geometry, algebra, trigonometry, statistics. or calculus.
Core courses in social science shall include offerings in history, social studies, economics, geography, psychology,
sociology, government, political science, or anthropology.
SOCIAL STUDIES
NATURAL OR
PHYSICAL SCIENCE Core courses in natural or physical science shall include biology, chemistry, physics, environmental science, botany,
or geology. In addition, students must complete at least one laboratory class, if offered by the high school.
ADDITIONAL CORE
COURSES
The two remaining years of additional academic credit must be from courses attempted in English, mathematics,
social science, natural or physical science, foreign language, computer science, speech, religion, or philosophy.
Online classes may not qualify for NCAA certified classes.
28
CREDIT/NO CREDIT POLICY
Students may be graded with “Credit” or “No Credit” only with administrative approval. In most cases, this approval will only be considered during the drop and add period at the beginning of each semester. Neither “Credit” nor “No Credit” will affect a student’s grade
point average.
PROCEDURE FOR STUDENTS’ RETAKING CLASSES
A student may repeat any course (except Independent Study classes) to improve a grade previously earned at Kenowa Hills High School
or another school. If the course to be repeated is required for graduation, it should be repeated the next time that the course is offered. A KHHS course should not be repeated for credit at another school.
The new grade and credits earned at KHHS completely replace the old grade and credit in computing grade point average, although the
earlier grade remains on the student’s transcript.
The student must fill out and submit a Repeat Course Card to his/her counselor in order for the above-described calculations to be performed.
Elective credit may be granted for courses that are repeated due to a recommendation by a school official. Requests for this credit to
be granted are to be directed to the High School Principal.
29
NON-DISCRIMINATION POLICY
It is the policy of Kenowa Hills Public School District that no person shall be excluded from participation in, be denied the
benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination during any program or activity or in employment because of their sex, race,
color, national origin, religion, height, weight, marital status, handicap, age, or disability. Any person feeling they have a
complaint should refer to Board policy 8015 for complete directions on how to file a non-discrimination complaint.

EARLY SKILLS AND APTITUDE TESTING FOR UNDERCLASSMEN
EXPLORE—9th grade
PLAN—10th Grade
The PLAN test is a comprehensive test given to students in their sophomore year. The PLAN covers the following items:
an interest survey which will relate student interests to Career Choices, an assessment of each student’s study power,
high school course selections, an assessment of each individual student’s needs, and a pre-ACT Test in the subject areas
of English, Math, Reading, and Science Reasoning. The Interest portion of the test will help students make better
career decisions regardless of whether they plan to attend college. It will identify at least three Career Pathways that
a student may want to pursue, based on that individual student’s answers. The pre-ACT Test sections will provide those
students who plan to go to college a better opportunity to score well when they take the ACT Test for college
acceptance. (See American College Testing Program)
PSAT/NMSQT—10th and 11th Grades
The Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT) aids secondary
schools in early identification and counseling of students planning to attend college and serves as the qualifying test for
scholarships awarded by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation. The PSAT/NMSQT measures developed verbal
and mathematical reasoning abilities important for academic achievement in college; the test assesses the ability to
reason with facts and concepts rather than the capacity to recall and recite them. The PSAT/NMSQT is a slightly
shorter, somewhat easier version of the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT), and is an excellent predictor of performance
on the SAT. Most students who take the PSAT/NMSQT are high school juniors, but many advanced sophomores also
take the test. The test is given at the high school in October (on a Saturday).
Other tests may be given as needs arise (Interest Surveys, Aptitude Tests).
32
COLLEGE ENTRANCE EXAMS—
11TH AND 12TH GRADES
Many colleges require students to take a standardized test before they make a decision regarding admission (Grades, special talents and accomplishments are also part of that decision.) These tests are intended to give you an estimate of your academic ability
and an idea of how you compare with other students entering college. The most commonly recognized tests are ACT and SAT.
COLLEGE PLACEMENT TESTS
Many colleges administer tests to new students to place them at the appropriate subject level. For example, if a student has taken
foreign language in high school and plans to continue language studies in college, some colleges require the student to take the language placement test to determine what level courses he/she should enter as a freshman. Also, many colleges give English and math
tests to all their students. These placement tests are administered by the college, usually during the student’s orientation period on
campus.
33
TESTING OUT PROCEDURE
Public Act 335, Section 1279B, of the State Code requires that high school students be offered the opportunity to “test out” of any
course offered by his/her high school.
In order to test out, a student must exhibit mastery of course content by attaining a grade of 80% or better on a comprehensive final
examination. The student may also be required to demonstrate mastery through basic assessments used in the class, which may include,
but are not limited to, portfolios, performance, papers, projects, and/or presentations.
Credit earned will be based on successful mastery of the required assessment and recorded as “pass”. The grade will not be included in
the computation of the grade point average. Credit will be accepted as fulfillment of a requirement in a course sequence. Once credit is
granted by “testing out”, a student may not receive credit for a lower course in that course sequence. Credit toward fulfillment of
graduation requirements will be granted for successful achievement of 80% or better on the final examination and/or completion of additional assessments mentioned above.
“Testing Out” will occur during the first week of summer school (third week of June) or during the last week of summer school (last week
of July). Specific dates for “testing out” will be published in advance. Exceptions to this may be made by certain departments that may
wish to have students “test out” during the school year. In either case, students must notify the high school principal in writing by filling
out the Testing Out form, which can be found in the “forms” section on the high school website. This form must be submitted to the
high school principal by May 15 of the current school year. Students may request a course syllabus and course outcomes in order to prepare for the examination and/or additional assessments.
Please be advised that school staff cannot be expected to provide review materials, a course syllabus, etc. during the last two weeks of
any semester. Students and parents are expected to plan well in advance if they desire to test out of a course.
NCAA eligibility may be affected by choosing the Testing Out option.

The Art Department provides a large number of course offerings leading to both skill and competency in a variety of art media. The Art
Department has a 2 option system allowing students to take a two-dimensional, three-dimensional, or multi-dimensional art track. Any
student wishing to take an advanced art course must first take that class’s prerequisite. All classes are run by semester.
The primary goals of the Art Department are: 1) to increase the student’s knowledge about the arts; 2) to develop intellectual, perceptual, and physical skills in the arts; 3) to provide affective experiences to form useful attitudes and values toward the arts, themselves,
and others; 4) to enhance the student’s creative development by exposure to the best images of the art world.
Students who are considering a career in art will find many positions available to them as teachers, advertising and lay-out artists, fashion designers, illustrators, communication designers, environmental designers, architects, interior decorators, printers, and painters, as
well as studio artists.

A majority of students will enter the high school and take Algebra during the freshman year. *Students may take Algebra IB their freshman year if they passed Algebra IA or have only
earned credit for semester 1 of Algebra. Listed below are the guidelines for students who wish to start in a higher math class for the freshman year.


Students who took Algebra and/or Geometry in the 7th and/or 8th grade at KHMS should have earned A’s or B’s before enrolling in Algebra II as a 9th grader at KHHS.

Students who did not attend Kenowa Hills Middle School and wish to begin the high school math sequence in a course higher than Algebra will need to show proficiency in Algebra
and/or Geometry by “testing out” of those courses. See page 35 for testing out options.
If students did not pass the semester exam or final exam in Algebra or Geometry in 7th or 8th grade, or did not earn an A or B consistently in those classes, it is recommended that
they retake Algebra as a 9th grade student before attempting Algebra II in 10th or 11th grade.

and appreciation of the universe around him.
To accomplish these goals, we are trying to place the emphasis in our courses on individual reason rather than on the absorption of facts. We are trying
to keep all courses up to date with the scientific achievements of today.

ALPHABETICAL LIST OF COURSES
Accounting I (Grades 11-12) 1 Year
A fundamental course designed to acquaint the students with the process of keeping records for a business, as well as records for their
own personal use. Periodically during the year, project and practice sets are used to link accounting concepts and to create a realistic
view of the complete accounting cycle. Can be taken as a 4th year math credit.
Accounting II (Grade 12) Prereq.: Accounting I 1 Year
As an extension of Accounting I, this course is organized to help the students learn how to use accounting data in interpreting accounting
information. Also covered are the principles of accounting for corporations and partnerships. Accounting practice sets, providing a more
realistic environment, are used to allow the students to assume the role of a full-charge accountant. At the beginning of the class, the
student will learn computerized accounting (most will have already learned this in Accounting I). Then the student will be able to use the
computer (as the Accountant would in the office environment) as a tool, with the student/accountant doing the “thinking” work and the
computer doing the “busy” work. This not only allows the student hands on practical experience with today’s office technology, but also
allows the student to do much more work and cover many more accounting principles than an Accounting II class not using computers.
The student may elect to receive Grand Rapids Community College credit for this course. Can be taken as a 4th year math credit.
Advanced Algebra with Statistics I (Grade 12) 1 Semester Prereq.: Successful completion of Algebra II
Advanced Algebra with Statistics I is a general survey of mathematical topics that help a diverse audience, with different backgrounds
and career plans, to understand mathematics, and extends some of the ideas explored in Algebra II. The topics include Problem Solving
and Critical Thinking; Set Theory; Logic; Number Representation and Calculation; Number Theory and the Real Number System; Algebra;
Equations and Inequalities; and Statistics.
Advanced Algebra with Statistics II (Grade 12) 1 Semester Prereq.: Successful completion of Algebra II
Advanced Algebra with Statistics II is a general survey of mathematical topics that help a diverse audience, with different backgrounds
and career plans, to understand mathematics, and extends some of the ideas explored in Algebra II. The topics include: Algebra:
Graphs, Functions, and Linear Systems; Consumer Mathematics and Financial Management; Measurement; Geometry; Counting Methods

Advanced Photography is an elective class that fulfills the Fine Arts requirement for graduation. The class is a continuation of Beginning
Photography and will begin with a review of tips for taking good pictures as well as composition and other rules that professional photographers use. In addition, students will also study and research types of cameras, other photography tips, shutter speed, and depth of
field. Assignments will include Journals, Moodle posts, Critiques of own work and others’, Photo Assignments, and other projects.
Advanced Placement Biology (Grades 11-12) 1 Year Prereq.: 1) “A” or “B” in Biology and 2) “A” or “B” in Chemistry. In addition to these
requirements, it is highly recommended that Human Anatomy and Physiology also be taken and that students have good writing skills.
Advanced Placement Biology will seek to meet the objectives of a general biology course at the college level. The AP Biology course will
be divided into three broad areas: Molecular and Cellular Biology, Heredity and Evolution, and Population Biology. A college level textbook will be used and laboratory experiences will be an integral part of this course. It is expected that students will take the national
AP Biology exam in May. If a student scores well on the examination, most colleges will give credit for up to eight hours of college freshman biology. Students who choose to take the AP exam will do so at their own expense.
Advanced Placement Calculus A/B (Grade 11-12) 1 Year Prereq.: Pre-Calculus
This class covers trigonometry, algebra, and geometry and their relationships to each other and to calculus. It will include the process
of integration and differentiation and their applications to Science and Social Studies.
Advanced Placement Calculus B/C (Grade 12) 1 Year
This class is a continuation of Advanced Placement Calculus A/B.
Advanced Placement Composition (Grade 12) 1 Year Prereq.: “B-” or above in AP Literature or teacher recommendation
Advanced Placement Composition is designed for the student who wishes to take the Advanced Placement Test in English Language and
Composition. The class focuses on the skills needed in the rhetorical techniques necessary for a variety of writing assignments ranging
from the brief essay to the research paper. Students will also read several novels during the year including THE SCARLET LETTER and
HUCKLEBERRY FINN. Assessment of students’ abilities will depend on the students’ abilities to do quality work in a timely fashion.
46
Advanced Placement Government (Grades 11-12) 1 Semester Prereq: Successful completion of World History and US History with a C+
or better and recommendation from US History instructor
