2024-25 Course Description Handbook [PDF]
This curriculum guide contains all the course offerings for the coming school year. It also contains school policies and regulations as well as graduation requirements for each graduating class. The education of a student is a responsibility shared by parents, their child, and the school. Therefore, it is important for students and parents/guardians to be informed about requirements for graduation and the courses offered at Jamesville-DeWitt High School which fulfill those requirements. We hope this handbook will be useful to you as we work together to develop the best academic program possible. You can also utilize curriculum maps for an in-depth look at each course available to students.
All students will meet with their counselors to develop an academic program for the 2024-2025 school year. The courses are selected by using following criteria:
- teacher recommendation
- standardized test scores
- past performance
- interests and future plans
You should note that the minimum requirement for a high school program of study is five subjects plus Physical Education each school year. It is our belief that this academic policy provides our students with the best preparation and experiences necessary for success after high school.
Thank you for your help in this very important process.
Sincerely,
Gregory Lawson
Principal
