STUDENTS: The information in this handbook is designed to assist the student and parents in choosing subjects for the next school year. The student’s Four Year Plan, which is updated each year, should reflect the student’s future plans, the student’s abilities, and graduation requirements. The student’s future plans will determine which of the suggested sequences should be used to select electives. All students will be scheduled for a conference with their counselor during the month of February, at which time, they will select the courses which they will take during the next year. After the information is entered into the computer system, parents will receive a Subject Election Verification form, which lists the courses the student is scheduled to take the next school year. If the parent does not agree with the courses selected or has any questions, the parent must contact the counselor within two weeks. Since staffing and programs are based on this information, no changes will be made to the student’s subject elections in September unless the student has failed a course which is a pre-requisite for a course on the student’s program. Included in this handbook are the following:

Graduation requirements for Chicago Public High Schools (p. 2)

Admission Requirements at Illinois Public Universities (p. 2)

Sequence for Special Programs (p. 3-7) Course Offerings (p. 8-12)

We encourage students and their parents to read and discuss the information in this handbook. To help you become familiar with the content of any particular course, you are welcome to view our course descriptions on Taft’s website at www.tafths.org. If you have any questions, please consult with your division teacher or counselor.

SEQUENCE FOR SPECIAL PROGRAMS

International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme The International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme is a rigorous pre-university course of study culminating in global exams in the junior and senior years of high school. To prepare students for the full diploma program, Taft offers students a high honors and advanced placement curriculum in six core subject areas: English, History, Science, Mathematics, World Language and the Arts. The IB Programme places strong emphasis on high academic standards, responsible citizenship, and international understanding. An application process is required, and students must attain a Plan/Explore test score of 17 or above in reading and 18 or above in math. This programme is designed for motivated students who are achieving at the 60th percentile and above. Students will be reevaluated after the 10th grade for proper advanced level placement. Successful completion of the programme will result in the awarding of both a Taft High School diploma and an International Baccalaureate diploma.

Advanced Placement Concentration Participating in the AP Program gives you the opportunity to take college-level courses while you’re still in high school. You can find AP courses in English, social studies, science, math, art, computer science, languages, and more. AP courses teach you skills that can lead to success in college. You’ll develop the writing skills, problem-solving techniques, and study habits that will prepare you for college academics. Plus taking rigorous AP courses demonstrates your maturity, willingness to push yourself intellectually, and commitment to academic excellence, which can help you stand out in the college admissions process. Students will be reevaluated after the 10th grade for proper advanced level placement. All AP instructors have successfully completed the AP College Board certification and are therefore qualified instructors.
