EDUCATING YOUTH FOR A BETTER TOMORROW

DISTRICT MISSION

The mission of the Webb City R-7 School District is to prepare today’s youth to meet the challenges of tomorrow’s world by guiding all students in the acquisition of knowledge and the development of skills that will enable each to become a productive and responsible individual.

WEBB CITY HIGH SCHOOL MISSION The relentless pursuit of student learning and success

DISTRICT PHILOSOPHY

At Webb City High School, our ultimate goal is to promote the total development of the individual student so that he or she may become a useful and responsible citizen in our ever-changing society. We realize the major responsibility for formal vocational, academic, and athletic training rests with the school; however, the family, church, and community must share in the total educational process. We realize the uniqueness of the individual and believe in the right of each person, regardless of ability or aspirations, to an education that is geared to his or her own needs in so far as the satisfaction of those needs does not interfere with the overall welfare of the group. It is important that the student be recognized for his or her own value as a human being through the academic program, co-curricular, and extracurricular activities. This recognition should encompass each facet of school and community life. Throughout the educational process, the democratic ideals of our heritage should be stressed so that the political, social, and economic values of our society will be perpetuated. We hope this will give each student the opportunity to develop civic responsibility through awareness of and involvement in democratic processes.

COUNSELORS’ MESSAGE

Dear WCHS Parents and Students:

High school can be one of the most exciting times in a student’s life. With careful planning over the next four years, this time can also be one of the most rewarding. The school counselors in WCHS’s Counseling Center would like to do everything possible to help make your high school years a positive experience for you! Choosing the program of studies that is right for you will have a strong impact on your future. Six career pathways have been developed to help you determine which high school courses will be of most benefit in planning your future. In addition to the career pathways, this guide also contains other information that will be useful during your high school career. Included are a listing of courses, course descriptions, suggested programs of study, as well as details about the honor diploma, graduation requirements, dual enrollment credit, and other special programs offered at our high school. Take responsibility for your future by being informed about every aspect of what is available to you. Don’t hesitate to ask questions if there is anything you are uncertain about. We encourage each parent to take an active role in your student’s education. If you have any questions concerning your child’s progress at any time, please contact our counseling center at 673-6090. We are here to help not only with academic and career concerns, but also with personal and social issues as well. Sincerely, Leigh Miller, M.S. Amelia Ross, M.S. Counselor Counselor Brittany Miller, M.S. Hailey Derryberry, M.S. Counselor Counselor

A+ SCHOOLS PROGRAM Webb City R-7 High School has been designated by the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education as an A+ School. Three goals provide direction for the program: • All students will graduate from high school. • All students will complete a selection of high school studies that is challenging and for which

there are identified learning expectations. • All students will proceed from high school graduation to a college, post-secondary

vocational/technical school, or high-wage job with workplace skill development opportunities.

As WCHS students prepare for life after high school, they will make different choices. Some will choose to go directly into the workforce or the military, others will choose to attend a four-year college or university, and still others will seek additional training at a vocational school or community college. The A+ Schools Program seeks to provide all students with a rigorous and relevant selection of courses, career counseling, technology and/or workplace skill development opportunities which are appropriate to their career goals. The A+ Schools Program also offers a financial incentive plan to encourage students to complete post-secondary training. This will include 2 year colleges as well as some participating 4 year institutions. Any Webb City High School graduate who meets the following eligibility requirements and who attends a qualifying Missouri public community college or vocational/technical school after high school graduation can qualify for full reimbursement of tuition through state funds. Eligible students must:

• Sign a written participation agreement before graduating from high school • Attend an A+ school for the last three years of high school • Maintain at least a 95% attendance record during 4 years of high school • Score proficient or advanced on the Algebra I EOC • Graduate with at least a 2.5 cumulative grade point average (GPA) on a 4.0 scale • Contribute 50 hours of tutoring in the district during high school • Demonstrate good citizenship • Make a good faith effort to secure all available federal post-secondary financial

assistance funds that do not require repayment • Be a U.S. Citizen • Register for selective service, if applicable (all males at the age of 18)

This financial incentive is available to qualifying students for a period of four years after high school graduation. To maintain eligibility, the participant must attend a Missouri public community college or vocational/technical school full-time and maintain a grade point average of 2.5 or higher on a 4.0 scale. If you or your parents have any questions concerning the A+ Schools Program, please contact the counseling center.

DEVELOPING AN EDUCATIONAL PLAN

PROCESS

WCHS students are encouraged to develop individual educational plans early in their high school years. Whether a student plans to enter a four-year college or university, attend a community college or vocational program, or go directly to work, an individual educational plan brings relevance and focus to each student’s four-year high school program. The process involves career exploration, personal assessment, and cooperative planning with advisors, counselors, and parents: • During elementary and junior high school, students take the first steps toward achieving

their career goals. They investigate a variety of career options and begin to assess personal interests and abilities.

• In the spring of the eighth grade, each student works with parents, advisors, and

counselors to develop a Four-Year Educational Plan. At this time, students begin to consider Career Pathways to give direction for course selection and continued career investigations. The Four-Year Plan and Career Pathway may reflect general areas of interest such as health services or more specific occupational goals such as respiratory therapist or civil engineer.

• The process of personal assessment continues into the freshman year. Throughout the year,

students have opportunities to talk with counselors about the process of career exploration as well as available resources. Research opportunities online on the Library Media Center and Counseling Center websites encourage students to intensify and personalize career investigations.

• Each year prior to enrollment, students, together with advisors and parents, update their

individual plans. Students revise plans to reflect personal growth, new interests, and/or changes in post-secondary goals. Before students are allowed to enroll for the next school year, a parent must discuss the plan with the student’s homeroom advisor and approve any changes and/or revisions.

• During the last three years of high school, students continue to investigate career options

and also participate in a variety of classroom-to-career activities: field trips to workplaces, career fairs, visits to colleges and/or vocational schools, job shadowing, supervised job experiences, apprenticeships, internships, etc. Students also work toward mastering workplace readiness competencies, which include developing a resume, learning appropriate job search skills, practicing effective interviewing skills, and developing problem solving and teamwork competencies.

CAREER PATHS & CLUSTERS

WCHS has adopted six career paths to provide direction and relevance for all students as they complete four years of high school course work. A general high school program of studies is no longer adequate preparation for today’s colleges or for employment in today’s complex workplace. Instead, students need the opportunity to focus on their individual interests, abilities, and career goals while they are still in high school. During elementary school and junior high school, students have opportunities to investigate career options and to assess their interests and abilities. As they develop a four-year plan, they select a pathway that aligns with their needs and career plans. Within each pathway, they will select courses to prepare them for one of three post-secondary choices--entering the work force, training at a vocational/technical school or community college, or attending a four-year college or university. As their interests and abilities change, they will have opportunities every year to work with counselors and advisors to review their plans, make changes and/or modifications, and to investigate new directions. WHAT ARE CAREER CLUSTERS? Career clusters are types of occupations/careers that are grouped because many people in them share similar interests and strengths. All clusters include a variety of occupations that require different levels of education and training. Selecting a career pathway will provide the student with an area of focus, along with flexibility for change and a variety of options to pursue. ARE CAREER CLUSTERS DESIGNED FOR ME? Career clusters are for ALL students. By selecting a career cluster, students can prepare for the future, regardless of your interests, abilities, talents, or desired level of education. All clusters are equally important. HOW CAN CAREER PATHWAYS HELP ME? Deciding on a career pathway can help students prepare for their future. The intent is not for them to decide on a specific occupation for the rest of their life, but to select a career path into which they can begin directing their energies. Identifying a career cluster can help a student select school courses, activities, and part-time employment. It can also help guide participation in classroom-to-career programs like job shadowing, apprenticeships, internships, etc. and learn all that they can about themselves, like strengths, interests, skills, etc. Review interest surveys, test scores, extra-curricular experiences, and work history. Use information in the Counseling Center or the Library Media Center to explore career options. As they consider their strengths and interests and their after-high-school plans, they will choose a pathway that will lead them toward their career goals. WHAT IF I CHANGE MY MIND? A career cluster choice is not a permanent commitment. As they have new experiences, they will learn new things about themselves and may change directions. If they decide on a new career cluster, they should discuss it with their counselor and adjust their future course selections in accordance with their new career direction.

Graduation Requirements DEFINITION OF TERMS

CREDIT -- The numerical unit received for successful completion of a course. (1 semester= .5 credit; 1 year=1 credit) REQUIRED COURSE -- Any course necessary for graduation. ELECTIVE -- A course that may be chosen for study as distinguished from courses which are required for graduation. Required courses that are over and above the minimum graduation requirements may also count as electives. PREREQUISITE -- The preliminary requirement that must be met before a certain course can be taken. Thus, Algebra I is a prerequisite for Geometry because it must be successfully completed first.

EARLY GRADUATION Seniors who wish to graduate at the close of their seventh semester and participate in graduation ceremonies must meet all of the graduation requirements by the end of the 10th school day of the second semester of their senior year as well as the following requirements: • The student must have attended Webb City High School the full second semester of his or her

junior year and first semester of the senior year. • The student must make an appointment with their counselor to complete a credit check and to

discuss their post-secondary plans. • Early graduates will not be eligible for Honor Diploma.

• Early graduates will not be ranked.

• Early graduates will not be eligible for local scholarships. • Early graduates will not be eligible for Cum Laude graduation.

ENROLLMENT INFORMATION GENERAL INFORMATION

• In the spring of the eighth grade year, each student is required to develop a 4-year educational

plan. The student must submit a copy signed by a parent to a counselor before he or she will be allowed to enroll. Each year, the student’s homeroom advisor will help the student to update the plan. At Parents’ Night, the student’s parent(s) or guardian meet with the advisor to discuss the plan and a proposed schedule. The student is not allowed to enroll for the upcoming school year until a parent has met with the homeroom advisor to discuss and approve revisions to the 4-year plan and the proposed schedule of classes.

• Each student is individually responsible for meeting graduation requirements. If a student fails a

semester of a required course, he or she must repeat the semester until a passing grade is received.

• In most required courses, students are not allowed to enroll in the next level of a course until the

prerequisite has been completed with a passing grade. • Seniors who are deficient in credits to the extent that they cannot graduate on time with their

class, may be eligible for the MO Options/GED Program. Students who complete this program receive a MO Options/General Educational Diploma (GED), and may participate in regular graduation ceremony and activities. Interested students should contact a counselor for details.

• When a student transfers credit from another school or from another program, transcripts are

evaluated on an individual basis. Students currently enrolled at WCHS are encouraged to seek the approval of a counselor before pursuing credit from any institution other than the Webb City R-7 School District.

• Students are not allowed to drop full-year courses after the first semester unless unusual and/or extenuating circumstances exist and the request is approved by the principal.

• Students who drop a class after the first two weeks of a semester will receive a semester grade of “F” for that course.

• Most classes will be filled with seniors, juniors, sophomores, and freshmen in that order. • The following classes may be repeated for credit: Band courses, Choir courses, PE I, PE II, Physical

Training, ROTC, Library Assistant, Leadership, Debate & Theatre Competition, Yearbook, Publications, Journalism, Current Events, and Multi Media.

The tuition fee is payable to the respective school prior to each semester in August and January. DUAL CREDIT STUDENT ELIGIBILITY: To be considered for admission to the Crowder College Dual Credit Program, a high school student must meet all of the following eligibility requirements:

• Students must meet the same requirements for admission to individual courses (e.g.prerequisites, test scores, etc.) as those required of an on-campus student • Students must score 18 in the Reading portion of the ACT for College U.S. History

To be considered for admission to the MSSU Dual Credit Program, a high school student must meet all of the following eligibility requirements:

• Students must meet the same requirements for admission to individual courses (e.g. prerequisites, test scores, etc.) as those required of an on-campus student

• Students must be a junior or senior with a 2.5 or higher cumulative GPA, or sophomores with a 3.0 or higher cumulative GPA

• Students must score 22 for College Algebra (Math 130), 19 for Math 125 and a 27 for Calculus (Math 150) on the math portion of the ACT

ADVANCED PLACEMENT (AP) CLASSES Webb City High School offers the following Advanced Placement (AP) classes: United States Government & Politics, United States History, Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Literature & Composition, and Language & Composition. The curriculum is designed so that upon completion of the course a student will take the AP examination offered by The College Board. The AP exams and course work are rigorous; however, many colleges and universities will award a student who receives a 3, 4, or 5 rating on the examination with 3 hours of college credit in specified college courses. Students are responsible for payment of the AP test and will be required to take the test if they are enrolled in an AP class. The only cost will be the exam fee, which is currently $85. Taking AP courses and passing the AP exams is an excellent way to accumulate college credits at a minimal cost. As Webb City adds AP courses to its curriculum, the intent will be to add courses which are widely accepted and will meet general education requirements at most colleges. AP courses and exams are widely accepted by major colleges and universities throughout the United States; however, students must contact individual schools to determine what AP courses and scores they accept for credit. Students planning to take AP courses should contact a counselor for additional information.
