Dear Students and Parents,

We are excited about the course options that will be available at Southview for the 2022-2023 school year. If this is your first time reading the program of studies, then I encourage you to take note of its organization. At the front of the book, you will find valuable information about important topics such as graduation, athletic eligibility, and honor roll. There are also pages devoted to typical course loads for students interested in various career pathways. The back half of the book consists of descriptions of both required and elective courses. These are organized by grade level and by department. The descriptions outline expectations, pre-requisites, and fees associated with particular courses. If you are familiar with the layout of the program of studies, I want to draw your attention to a few new course offerings. There are two new courses in the physical education department: Weightlifting and Lifetime Sports. We have added an a cappella group to our choirs—Southview Varsity Singers. And finally, we now have an honors level option for the cosmetology program.

Students will have three options for earning college credit before leaving Southview. As further evidence that Southview is an elite college preparatory high school, I submit that we will be offering 21 different AP classes during the upcoming school year. If you are interested in a four-year college or university after graduation, we encourage you to explore the option of taking at least one AP course while you are here. Secondly, dual enrollment options are available for a wide variety of career tech programs and a small number of academic courses. These courses enable students to learn on Southview’s campus and simultaneously earn college credit. Finally, the College Credit Plus program allows students to take college courses while they are still in high school.

Students, as you begin the scheduling process, we hope the program of studies will help to answer some of your questions and serve as a starting point for exploring your interests. You should not hesitate to contact your counselor or a principal if you have any questions. Please discuss possible options with your parents and other adults in your life. We want you to have a rich high school experience that will prepare you to meet the goals you have for the rest of your life after graduation.

Sincerely,

Dr. Kasey Vens, Ph. D. Principal

GLOBAL STUDIES CAPSTONE
The Global Studies Diploma program focuses on promoting global competency and an enhanced worldview for high school students. Students who participate in the Global Studies Diploma program will participate in a set of educational activities and experiences in their community that will challenge them to explore and engage with other cultures. The goals of this program are to help students develop cultural awareness, empathy and advocacy and to prepare students with the 21st century skills needed for success in the globalized world.

The Global Studies Diploma program consists of 4 concentrations: Celebrate Culture, Deeper Investigation through Globally Significant Research, Communicate Effectively, and Action. Each concentration should take students 1 year to complete. The first 3 badges will be completed independently by the student through coursework and community
experiences with the help of the program advisor. The Action badge will require students to complete a capstone project or internship. Students completing the capstone project will enroll in the new Global Studies Capstone course. After completing the program, students will receive the Global Studies Diploma recognition from the World Affairs Council of Northwest Ohio.

AP CAPSTONE
The College Board’s AP Capstone is an innovative college-level program based on two new courses - AP Seminar and AP Research - that complement and enhance discipline-specific AP courses.

The program provides students with an opportunity to engage in challenging scholarly practice of the core academic skills necessary for successful college completion. The ability to think independently, write effectively, research, collabo- rate, and learn across disciplines is essential for success in college, career, and beyond.

Students who earn scores of 3 or higher in AP Seminar and AP Research and on four additional AP Exams of their choos- ing will receive the AP Capstone Diploma. This signifies their outstanding academic achievement and attainment of college level academic and research skills. Students who earn scores of 3 or higher in both AP Seminar and AP Research but not on four additional AP Exams will receive the AP Seminar and Research Certificate.

OHIO DIPLOMA WITH HONORS
Ohio offers several options for Honors Diplomas, including

Students who cannot afford to pay the AP Exam fee may be eligible to receive financial help. A request for financial aid must be filed with the Assistant Principal for Teaching and Learning by October 1 of each year.

AP Grading Procedure
A weighted grading scale is in use for Honors and AP courses (Refer to grading scale, p. 18). Students who earn a grade of D at the end of the first 9 weeks in an AP course are encouraged to have a conference with the teacher, the student’s counselor, and the parent. Existing procedures for dropping or transferring from a course will be used.

Actual registration can also be completed online with Internet access. Students should take the ACT test or the SAT test (or both) beginning their junior year. These scores plus the grade point average (GPA) will be used by the NCAA clear- inghouse to determine eligibility to participate in college sports at the Division I and Division II levels.

to 5 units of credit the previous quarter and the Sylvania policy standard which is the 1.5 grade point average the previ- ous quarter.

No player may transfer from one sport to another after the first scheduled contest. If a player quits, or is removed from a team, he/she may not join another sport or participate in any preseason conditioning, open gyms, open skates, etc., until
the season which they are no longer participating in is completed.

INCOMPLETE GRADES “I”
Students who receive an “I” for incomplete must make arrangements to make up the work within two (2) weeks of the end of the quarter or the grade will become an “F.” Exceptions to this must be approved by the principal.

HONOR ROLL
Outstanding academic achievement is recognized by the Honor Rolls, compiled and published at the end of each nine week grading period. A student must take five courses to be considered for the honor roll.
Highest Honor	4.0 or better
Honor Roll	3.5 - 3.99
Merit Roll	3.0 - 3.499

REPEATING COURSES
Required courses that are failed should be taken in summer school or through Sylvania credit recovery programs when possible. Failure to make up a course in the summer may ultimately delay graduation. Students must consult with their counselor to develop a credit recovery plan. Students who hire a private tutor to repeat coursework must have assistant principal of teaching and learning approval, sign a contract, and meet state guidelines. The student must take a depart- ment exam to earn course credit. The student should see a counselor BEFORE he or she considers this option. Grades from alternative learning opportunities (e.g. Edgenuity) will be averaged with other grades. If any course is repeated via traditional delivery method, the higher grade will be counted in the GPA. The class being repeated must be the same
class as originally taken. Courses taken during the summer must be completed prior to the start of the next school year.

OPEN ENROLLMENT POLICY
Open enrollment for secondary schools begins the first day school is in session in November through the last school day before the Winter Break of the current year. Applications can be obtained through Student Services located on the first floor in the Administration Building between the hours of 7:30 am - 4:00 pm, Monday - Friday. Approval is contingent upon space availability in the school of your choice. A copy of the open enrollment policy will be provided with all applications.

COLLEGE CREDIT PLUS
Eligible students can take a course and earn high school and college credit that appears on both the high school and col- lege transcripts.

There is no cost for the student to participate in College Credit Plus when the student is enrolled in a public college or university. Students choosing to enroll in a participating private college or university might incur costs.

With both programs, there are several conditions that must be met. Students interested in participating in College Credit Plus must see their school counselor for full details. Prior to the deadline, a required informational meeting will be scheduled to outline the details of this program. All interested students and parents must attend.

CREDIT FLEXIBILITY
Students will have an opportunity to earn credits through the district's Credit Flexibility Plan. Please visit the district website at http://www.sylvaniaschools.org/CreditFlex.aspx to view and download the Sylvania Credit Flex Plan.
GRADING SCALE
The grade card contains the following information each semester:
A letter grade for the first and second nine-week periods.
A letter grade for the exam.

Each reporting period is 40% of the semester average while the exam equals 20%. The final percentage determines the letter grade that is listed on the transcript.

The semester grade is determined by multiplying the 1st marking period grade by two as shown in the chart below. The 2nd marking period grade is also multiplied by two. Finally, the exam grade is added to the sum of both marking periods and divided by five.

Example:

1st Quarter Grade	2nd Quarter Grade	1st Semester Exam	
99/A+	91/A-	91/A-	
A+ A- A- = (99 x 2) + (91 x 2) + 91 = 471/5 = 94.2 = A
A minimum total of 298 is necessary to receive a passing grade for the semester.

CAREER TECHNICAL EDUCATION ADMISSIONS AND ENROLLMENT POLICY
The selection and admission process for Sylvania’s Career Technical Education programs begins in the sophomore year. Through the various career awareness activities held on both school campuses, students have an opportunity to learn about each program.

Students interested in applying for a Career Technical Education program must complete an application (available online at sylvaniaschools.org) that is signed by the parent/guardian and returned to the guidance counselor. Programs begin in the fall of the junior year. Credits earned for parts of the total program passed each semester will be added to the student’s cumulative total. Students who fail their program will be withdrawn and rescheduled in other academic classes necessary for graduation.

Students who are entering their junior year are eligible to apply for a program if they have completed the minimum require- ments of:
2 credits English
2 credits Math
2 credits Science
1 credit physical education/health

Seniors applying are required to have additional courses plus a minimum of 12 credits.

If a student does not meet the minimum eligibility requirements, and there is space available in the program, an educational plan may be used to admit that student.

Some Career Tech Education programs can be taken for Honors credit. See your counselor for details.

Students will be considered for admission to the Career Technical Program on the basis of scholastic record, related experi- ences, attendance, and discipline record. Program space is limited and will be based on availability and application ranking.

Every effort will be made to place students in their proper programs based on the Career Pathways model as adopted by both Sylvania Northview and Southview. Some programs require, by law, background checks and/or medical releases for participation. See your guidance counselor for more details.

CAREER TECHNICAL OVER-ENROLLMENT POLICY
Career Technical Programs are enrolled with students who can most benefit from class. Good behavior and attendance are extremely important to the success of the student in the programs. Programs will be enrolled to capacity using the following criteria:
Completion of the career tech application process.
Class status-Juniors will be given priority in the first year of a two year program.
Seniors may enroll in the first year of a two year program if space is available. Seniors are not permitted to enroll in programs that require two year participation for licensing/industry credentialing.
Attendance-Most Career Technical programs meet more than one period per day over a two year period of time. Attendance is critical to the success of students in these programs.
Discipline history-The discipline history will be used for calculating scores on the enrollment rubrics.
The cumulative GPA will be used for the enrollment rubrics.

Every effort will be made to place students in their proper programs based on the Career Pathways model as adopted by both Sylvania Northview and Southview.

Seniors may choose to spend their senior year in the first year of a two year program, space permitting. It is not unusual that some seniors get to their final year in high school and realize that they don’t (or won’t) have any hands-on-experience in preparing for the world of work. The idea that “one year’s experience is better than no experience” has worked for some pathway areas. Seniors are not permitted to enroll in programs that require two year participation for licensing/industry

credentialing.
HOME SCHOOL ENROLLMENT POLICY
All Career Technical Education programs are available to all juniors and seniors regardless of their home school. Home school designation is based on your residence and district boundaries. Enrollment in a Career Technical Education program does not change your designated home school.

TRANSFER BUS POLICY
Students who travel between high schools for their Career Technical Education program will have the opportu- nity to take the school transfer bus. This option may not be available for single period Career Technical classes.
Students who wish to drive between buildings must follow the driving/parking procedures indicated in the students’ home school handbook and complete a Permission to Drive form available from the Career Technical Office or program instructor.

STUDENT ACTIVITIES
Career Technical Education students are encouraged to participate in their home school’s extra-curricular activi- ties such as sports, clubs, music, etc. The student will be under the eligibility rules established by the Sylvania Board of Education and the State of Ohio.

EARLY PLACEMENT
Students who have demonstrated above average achievements and have a recommendation from their instructor may be eligible for early job placement. Students are placed in a job related to their field of technical training. Early placement will take place during the second semester as arranged by the instructor. They are graded on their work by their employer and may also be paid. The experience provides an opportunity for students to begin the transition from school to work with the encouragement and assistance of their career technical instructor.

CAREER TECHNICAL STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS
Career Technical Education programs offer co-curricular activities in student organizations that provide leader- ship opportunities at the local, regional, state and national levels.

Business Professionals of America- Today’s students—tomorrow’s business professionals. This national organization for Business Technology, Financial Management, and Computer Programming and Interactive Media students provides the members with the opportunity for development of leadership skills, personal and professional growth, social awareness, civic responsibility and an understanding of the business community. Students may compete in regional, state, and national competitions.
FFA- Students enrolled in Horticulture are eligible to participate in FFA activities.

GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS
It is the student’s responsibility to see that the requirements for graduation are met. Southview High  School will make every effort to keep up-to- date records and students and parents informed about the status of progress toward completing the necessary course work for graduation. However, it is the student’s responsibility to be acquainted with necessary graduation requirements.

In order to meet the prescribed stan- dards set forth by the State Department of Education and Sylvania Board of Education and to help pupils select the proper sequence of courses, the following regulations and suggestions are listed:

•Twenty-two (22) units of satisfac- tory work at the high school level are required for graduation.

•Sylvania Board of Education Policy 6140 (Promotion Through the Grades) requires that some identified students with learning difficulties will be assigned to appropriate classes for remediation. Successful completion of these courses shall take precedence over taking other courses outside the core curriculum.
CLASSES OF 2023 and Beyond

•Students must pass the Ohio Core Curriculum, participate in end of course exams, and meet one of the state-required pathways to graduation (http://education.ohio.gov/ Topics/Ohio-s-Graduation-Requirements) Follow this link for updated information on

One credit of World Studies, 1 credit American History, .5 credit American Government, remaining 1 credit elective.
Math units must include Algebra II.
Students must complete at least two semesters of fine arts. Students following a career-technical pathway are exempted from the fine arts requirement.
Please see your guidance counselor for details.
Five of the 6 electives must be chosen from foreign language, fine arts, business, career-technical education, family and consumer sciences, technology, agricultural education, or English, mathematics, or science, social studies courses not otherwise required.
Please see the course descriptions for qualifying courses.

The following contract (located on the student registration sheet) will need to be signed by the student and parent in order for a flexible schedule to be enacted.

I understand that the student is responsible for meeting all Sylvania course requirements for graduation as well as Ohio State Graduation Pathways requirements. A flexible schedule may be cancelled in order to meet these requirements.
I understand that the student is responsible for knowing changes to the time schedule and attending all sched- uled classes when in session (e.g. assembly or two-hour delay).
If the student participates in extra-curricular activities, he or she must maintain athletic eligibility. All athletes must pass a minimum of five full credit courses per quarter according to OHSAA Bylaws. Students who plan to participate in collegiate-level athletics must also follow NCAA Clearinghouse regulations.
Students with a flexible schedule must enter or leave the building at the designated time period. Students are not permitted to remain at school at unauthorized times.
The student and/or parent are responsible for the transportation to and/or from school at times other than the regularly scheduled bus routes.
Sylvania Schools is not responsible for students scheduled out of the building during the flexible scheduling time.
The Sylvania administration reserves the right to revoke a student’s privilege for early release or late arrival for violations of the code of conduct, attendance issues, or academic concerns.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Teacher recommendations are made early in the school year, yet teachers have the opportunity to re-evaluate/change their decision as the year progresses. If the student's grade drops or a change in student performance occurs, the teacher can opt to change the recommendation. If that occurs, the student and parent will be notified by the child's counselor. If a parent/student disputes the change, he or she must contact the counselor to resolve the conflict.

If a parent wishes to override the recommendation of a teacher, they must sign a Recommendation Override Authoriza- tion, available from the school counselor. In addition, if an override is enacted, a subsequent class change must still fol- low the Schedule Changes policy in the student handbook.

SCHEDULING PROCEDURES
All eighth, ninth, tenth and eleventh grade students must fill out registration forms for the next year even though they may plan to attend another school.
Students should discuss course selections for the following year with their parents.
The registration form must be filled out and signed by both student and parent (Recommended courses will be indicated). Course Selection will be completed online.
The recommended course load is six (6) periods of course work per semester for seniors and seven (7) periods for underclassmen.
Juniors and seniors may request an AM or PM flexible schedule. An AM flexible schedule will allow for a delayed starting time. A PM flexible schedule will allow for an early release time (Please see your counselor for the flex scheduling paperwork detailing rules and restrictions.).
The school reserves the right to limit or cancel any classes which are offered in the program of studies.
POST SECONDARY TRANSITION ACTIVITIES (FLEX SCHEDULING)
Post Secondary Transition Activities provide the opportunity to explore educational and work options outside of the tra- ditional school day. This student-centered format encourages students to explore job shadowing, internships, or early job placement through the creation of a flexible schedule.

Juniors and seniors may request an AM or PM flexible schedule. An AM flexible schedule will allow for a delayed start- ing time. A PM flexible schedule will allow for an early release time. With this flexible schedule option, the district is not responsible for transportation outside regular scheduled routes. All flexible schedule requests are contingent upon the master schedule and course requirements for graduation.
SCHEDULE CHANGES
Planning a schedule for the next school year is a difficult task, and situations may occur requiring a change in that sched-
FRESHMAN:Course Offerings
ule. Changes have a serious effect on class size, teacher assignments, and the overall master schedule. Thus, students and parents are urged NOT to plan a program with the idea that it can be changed. If a parent-approved schedule change is to be considered, you should see your counselor prior to the closing of the school year. No personal prefer- ence changes will be made after the start of school. Space availability will be a major factor in honoring your request. A student/parent may not request a specific teacher.
Only the following reasons will constitute a need for a change:
1.A technical error was made in the process of scheduling the student’s requests.
The student has been academically misplaced.
There is a scheduling conflict.
There is a scheduling overload.
Schedule changes are official when the following conditions are met:
All schedule changes must go through the assigned counselor.
Schedules will not be changed without appropriate signatures on the change form.
The schedule change has been entered into the computer.
The student has been given a new, updated copy of the schedule.

ADDING A CLASS AFTER SCHOOL BEGINS: Course additions must occur no later than five (5) school days after the beginning of a course. A course may be scheduled in place of a study hall or commons. The student's schedule will not be rearranged to accommodate an additional course.

COURSE WITHDRAWAL AFTER SCHOOL BEGINS: Students may drop a course without penalty until the end of the tenth (10th) school day of a semester or year-long course with the teacher and parent permission. The course will be replaced with a study hall. Freshmen and sophomores will not be permitted to drop the course if their course load would drop below the seven (7) recommended course load each semester. Juniors and seniors are required to maintain course loads to meet scheduled graduation requirements.

Students dropping a course after ten school days will receive an "F" for the semester unless it is dropped with written teacher recommendation. Teacher recommendation will be based on the following criteria:
The student has sought assistance from the teacher.
The student has taken advantage of any available tutorial services.
The student's work does not indicate the ability to meet minimum course requirements with conscientious effort.

Students will be assigned to a study hall (not commons) for the remainder of the semester if the course is dropped. Stu- dents are expected to complete all year-long classes; however, a semester's credit will be given to a student who has suc- cessfully passed one semester of a year-long course if the student was enrolled in the course for the entire year or special circumstances exist to warrant a drop at the end of the first semester.

FRESHMAN:Course Offerings
It is strongly recommended that students review the Career Pathways schedules and Pathway Electives online before beginning the scheduling process. Refer to the following course descriptions to finalize course selections.

A freshman schedule should include the required courses listed below plus a minimum of one elective.
Required Courses: English 9, Math, Science 9, World Studies, Health, Physical Education

The following course descriptions are designed to assist in scheduling the freshman year. Northview has a nine-period day. It is recom- mended that freshman take six courses with a lunch and study hall each semester. Open periods will be filled with an additional study hall.
