Two pathways to graduation
During the first two years of high school, students focus on building on the knowledge and skills they gained in previous grades. Every 9th and 10th grade student will take core academic classes to work towards a diploma.
Following the student’s 10th grade year, a student may choose to work toward a Jump Start TOPS Tech Pathway or pursue the TOPS University Pathway. Decisions are made with counseling and guidance, based on the student’s interests, capabilities, and ambitions.
