MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Dear Students and Parents:
The publication of this Curriculum Guide is our way of sharing with you the courses and various educational
programs/policies that students follow throughout their years at Hudson High School. It is our best attempt at compiling
all the current information so students and parents can plan appropriately for next year and beyond. And specifically to
our students, this document should serve as a valuable resource as you plan and schedule coursework for your high school
years. Careful planning and thoughtful decision making will make your high school experience positive as you build a solid
educational foundation for the future. Special attention should be directed at the Course Planning Guide located on the
last few pages of this booklet—it’s a great planning strategy to keep the end in mind!

Section I of this document includes important information regarding policies and programming. In addition, it is our goal
to be up front and transparent when it comes to school fees. We have worked hard to identify required costs associated
with each course and share those early on in this document. We have also scrutinized these fees to make sure our students
receive the best possible experience at the least cost!

We are very proud of the vast, comprehensive programming we are able to offer to each individual student; Section II
summarizes all of the curricular opportunities that exist for Hudson High School students. Numerous choices exist across
the curriculum from required courses in the core academics to electives in all areas of interest—our school counselors are
here to help and remind students to select courses that: (1) fulfill graduation requirements, (2) best prepare them for
their future, and (3) are areas of personal interest that contribute to each graduate’s level of well-roundedness. Seniors:
make sure that your senior year course selections reflect rigor—colleges are looking for it!

If you have questions or concerns, please ask any staff member for assistance. We are here to serve you so don’t think
for a minute that you’re imposing—your success is our success! I encourage every student to get involved and take
advantage of all facets of our school program. Enjoy your high school experience and best wishes for success at Hudson
High School. For your convenience, and to reference the most up-to-date information, this document can also be found
on the school’s web page at www.hudson.k12.oh.us.

Yours in education,
Brian Wilch, Principal
