Students are expected to schedule seven (7) periods for each semester. Students should choose their subjects with great care, taking into consideration high school graduation requirements and post-graduation plans. Additionally, if you plan to earn an Honors Diploma and/or participate in collegiate athletics, please consider those requirements when making your course selections.  Please seek the advice and expertise of your parents, teachers, and school counselor regarding the right course of studies for you.

Students in the classes of 2023 and beyond (those who entered grade 9 on or after July 1, 2019) are now required to meet a new set of graduation requirements. These new graduation requirements consist of three key components:

1. Course Completion
Students will satisfy Ohio’s curriculum requirements and any additional local requirements. Students will complete the state minimum 20 units, with specific units required in each content area.

2. Demonstrating Competency
Students will demonstrate competency in the foundational areas of English language arts and mathematics or through alternative demonstrations, which include College Credit Plus, career-focused activities, their ACT or SAT scores, or military enlistment.

3. Demonstrating Readiness (Seals)
Students will demonstrate readiness for their post-high school paths by earning two diploma seals that allow them to demonstrate important foundational and well-rounded academic and technical knowledge, professional skills, and leadership and reasoning skills.

WHAT ARE HONORS DIPLOMAS?

High school students can gain state recognition for exceeding Ohio’s graduation requirements through an honors diploma. To meet honors diploma requirements, students challenge themselves by taking and succeeding at high-level coursework and in real-world experiences.  More information regarding Honors Diplomas can be found HERE.

The Academic Honors Diploma criteria below applies to the Classes of 2024 and 2025, however those students may also use the new requirements for the Class of 2026 to achieve an honors diploma.

Students must meet all but one of the criteria to earn an honors diploma.

High school students often choose different paths based on their interests, strengths, and long-term goals. Some pursue college to earn degrees in specialized fields, while others explore trade schools, join the workforce, or enlist in the military. To help them navigate these choices, the resources below will provide valuable guidance. 

Each year, our seniors are highly encouraged to apply for financial aid using the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). 

It's never too early—or too late—to explore your options for college, trade school or career certification. One key step in preparing for post-secondary education is the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

The FAFSA is NOT just for four-year college students! ANY student who is enrolled or accepted for enrollment at an institution for the purpose of obtaining a degree, certificate, or other recognized education credential offered by that institution is eligible for financial assistance.

FAFSA is NOW OPEN!!

CCP Textbook Information

Textbooks can be ordered through Sinclair’s online bookstore at https://sinclair.ecampus.com/  Books will be sent directly to your home and the cost is covered by the district.  The district will only cover the cost of materials that are REQUIRED for the class.  Wayne High School will NO LONGER carry an inventory of textbooks.  Books may not be ordered until 10 days before the start of the semester.  ALL materials purchased by the district MUST be turned in to Mrs. Gore in B113 at the end of the semester or if you drop a class to avoid any fees.

Withdrawing from CCP

If a student fails a CCP course or withdraws from the course AFTER the refund date, the student/parent(s) will be responsible for all costs associated with the course.  Courses are charged $41.64 per credit hour.  (Example: ENG 1101 is 3 credit hours.  Student fails or withdraws after the refund date, therefore, $124.92 will be added to the student's fees.) Please monitor your CCP institution's calendar for the drop date with a refund if you plan on dropping a class.  Any books, computer programs, or other materials purchased for the course by the district MUST be returned to Mrs. Gore, CCP Coordinator, if the student withdraws from the course or when the semester is completed.
