AB1330 CTE Course Option for Graduation

The following CTE courses, as defined, as an alternative to the graduation requirement that a pupil complete a course in visual or performing arts or a foreign language.

The Board of Education approved to revise Board Policy 6146.1 – High School graduation requirements, pursuant to Ed Code 51225.3:

Commencing with the 2013-2014 school year, completion of a course in Career Technical Education, as defined, is an alternative to the graduation requirement that a pupil complete a course in visual or performing arts or a foreign language.

The intent is to allow more choices to successful completion of high school for students that are highly interested and engaged in their Career Technical Education class(s) and would prefer those classes to a fine arts class.

Definition of CTE

CTE courses that may be substituted for the existing one year-long course requirement in visual or performing arts or foreign language must meet the following definition:

“A course in career technical education” means a course in a district-operated career technical education program that is aligned to the career technical model curriculum standards and framework adopted by the state board, including course through a regional occupational center or program operated by a county superintended to schools or pursuant to a joint powers agreement.

MUHSD CTE Course List

Each school will provide parents with notification that their student is enrolled in a Career Technical Education (CTE) Course that will have the option to act as a graduation requirement in lieu of the Fine Art requirement gained through a Visual and Performing Arts course or a foreign Language. The notification will also include in detail the effects of choosing to take a CTE course in lieu of Visual and PerformingArts/Foreign Language. Students who choose this alternative path to graduation, will not meet the fine arts requirement for admission to the California State University and the University of California systems.

Parent Resource Nights

Atwater High School offers monthly meetings where parents may obtain information and resources from the school and community. Parents and students may view their grades on the computers. Counselors, community liaisons, school staff, and administrators attend each meeting.

Parent Resource Nights are held in the library every first Wednesday of the month from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m.
