This Curriculum Guide is developed as an aid to help you plan your course of study for the four years of high school.  Look over it carefully.  Store it in a handy location for future reference.  Use it to prepare for registration.

 1.  Develop a four-year plan using the graduation requirements and the available elective programs to explore various areas of interest.  This plan may change as your experiences expand.  Your parents may provide guidance and insight into long-range goals.  Please use the Pinellas High School Course Descriptions on the Pinellas County Schools website to read a complete description of each course at  http://www.pinellas.k12.fl.us/ci/hscurric
