Junior Classification                  11 unit credits
Senior Classification                  17  unit credits

Due to the consecutive nature of the course, a student can take only one English course during the school year. It is strongly recommended that a student failing English attend the Summer School Mastery Program following the failing year. A student must successfully complete the prerequisite course before scheduling the next course in this subject.
