Agriscience Systems Management CTE H 407412

Life Sust Ag
LHS 11-12 10 H D N
Science Capstone
Offered At Grades Credits College Credit Pre/Co-Req AP/H Grad Req A-G Repeatable CTE Pathway

This integrated class combines an interdisciplinary approach to lab science and research with agricultural management principles.
Using skills and principles learned, students design systems and experiments to solve agricultural management issues facing the
industry. Also, students will connect the products created in class with industry activities to link real world encounters and implement
skills demanded by colleges and careers. The course culminates with an agriscience research project in which students design and
conduct an experiment to solve a relevant issue.

THS 10-12 10 page 21 Lang, CTE F N Concentrator
Offered At Grades Credits College Credit Pre/Co-Req AP/H Grad Req A-G Repeatable CTE Pathway

This course acquaints students with theories and principles of artistic design and the influence of floral artistry. The course emphasizes
knowledge and skills to provide students with a perceptual base leading to understanding artistic perception, creative expression,
historical and cultural context(s); aesthetic valuing and connections, relations and application of visual arts. Through practical skill
development the student will become familiar with materials, tools, design mechanics, maintenance and design evaluation. Students
will achieve this through creating, designing, identifying, explaining and evaluating topics of study.

Advanced Floral Design CTE CP 405710

BCHS, LHS, 11-12 10 Y Fine Art, * Y Floral Design
THS Lang, CTE Capstone
Offered At Grades Credits College Credit Pre/Co-Req AP/H Grad Req A-G Repeatable CTE Pathway

This course will build upon the prerequisite course. Advanced Floral Design will increase the focus on the art of design, handling of
cut flowers, the mechanics of floral design, and the effects of retail in the floral industry. Students will learn about building and
designing displays, advertising, marketing, pricing and sales. Students will also develop floral design skills for use in industries such
as wedding, sympathy, and event floral work. Prerequisite: Successful completion of Art & History of Floral Design
