Schedule

Sample Schedule

MST Magnet course credits are denoted in bold and represent in the freshmen and sophomore years an integrated education designed to enhance learning opportunities and help students achieve broader program goals.  In grades 11 and 12, students may opt for additional, specialized science, technology, engineering, or math classes, but it is not required. Many options are available for students to meet their graduation requirements through the regular six period day at CHS, via zero or seventh period, and in some cases through independent study. Required courses are bolded.

**Students taking English 12 devote at least a month of classroom time to Senior Project work, so they are required to complete all Senior Project expectations per the teacher’s guidelines. To be clear, the MST internship experience and paper typically still serve as the basis for the English 12 Senior Project, and students generally find it a manageable task transforming MST deliverables into English 12 deliverables given the classroom time available.  Students taking AP Literature typically spend fewer hours devoted to Senior Project work, but they are expected to complete all Senior Project expectations inside/outside of class per the teacher’s guidelines.
