             Please review the flow chart for possible science sequences from Grades 9 - 12.
             The types of science courses taken by students should be influenced by their long-range goals following
             high school, as well as their ability and interests. In forecasting for science courses, students must
                                                            ​
             strongly consider the recommendation of their current science teacher. Please study the sequence
                                                                                    ​
             flowchart for science courses carefully as well as review the specific prerequisites listed for courses to
             determine your options.  Note that many science courses have a math prerequisite.
                                     ​

             Students need three years of science for graduation. Science units must include 1 unit of
                                                                  ​
             physical sciences, 1 unit of life sciences and 1 unit advanced study in one or more of the following
             sciences: chemistry, physics, environmental science, or advanced life or physical science.
             Students in a college preparatory sequence should complete at least three years of science in
             high school including one biological science and one physical science.  This could include
                                                                                    ​
