SECTION II

COURSE DESCRIPTIONS

This section of the HHS Curriculum Guide provides descriptions for each course offered at the high school as well as
through the Six District Educational Compact. Information contained in this section is updated each year—the version
posted on the school website is the most current (www.hudson.k12.oh.us). For more information on any Six-District
program, visit www.sixdistrict.com or see the Compact Career Catalog 2020-21. It’s important to stay abreast of changes
that occur each year so that you and your parents can make the best decisions possible in planning your high school
educational career.

Please pay attention to graduation requirements, prerequisites, credits and grades eligible for each course—that
information is provided under the course title. In our schedule you have the opportunity to take seven classes. Students
are required to take at least six classes; seniors have the option of taking five but must pay attention to
athletic/extracurricular eligibility. We encourage students to take advantage of the many options and choices offered here
at HHS; we have a comprehensive program with a wide range of coursework that will afford you many opportunities that
can lead to a very rewarding high school experience.

Good planning up front in the scheduling process will help us in our efforts to offer the courses you choose. Be sure to
include parents and guidance counselors in the process. Once the master schedule is finalized, it becomes very difficult
to make changes later; students are held to their choices once the course verification forms are signed off by parents.
For 2021-22, only minor changes were made to the Curriculum Guide given the uncertain times surrounding the pandemic.
Families need to pay attention to changes in required testing and graduation requirements from the Ohio Department of
Education as they respond to the challenges schools face in balancing in-person and remote learning.
