"What should I take in high school?"

Proper academic and career preparation is essential to success. Different programs require and/or recommend different high school course work.  We've developed model programs of study to help guide your planning and courses.  Remember:   these are just models; interested students should review this model with a guidance counselor or advisor and modify to suit individual needs.
