District 99 Accelerated Placement
District 99 encourages all students to challenge themselves by taking the most rigorous courses which may include honors, dual credit, and/or Advanced Placement (AP) courses. This plan aligns to the District’s goal of providing educational programs with opportunities for students to develop to their maximum potential.
As partners in the course registration process, parents/guardians are encouraged to discuss course options as outlined in the Academic Planning Guide. Course recommendations are open in Home Access Center (HAC) during the course registration process. Parents/guardians are notified of the courses their student has registered for, including those in which their student was automatically placed, if applicable. A parent/guardian whose student was automatically accelerated may decline that placement.
Students entering grades 9 and 10 have the option of enrolling in the most rigorous courses available at that grade level and within an applicable course sequence in the four core areas, English, Math, Science and Social Studies. Students must meet the prerequisites for all classes.
Students entering grade 11 who meet/exceed standards on the requisite state assessment will be automatically placed in the next level of the most rigorous courses in English and Mathematics. Students entering grade 12 who meet/exceed standards on the requisite state assessment will be automatically placed in the next level of the most rigorous course in English. This does not preclude students who do not meet/exceed standards from being recommended for honors, dual credit or AP classes. Families whose student was automatically accelerated may decline that placement.
The following charts are provided in multiple formats to identify which assessments will be utilized to accelerate students entering grade 11 and 12 who meet/exceed standards on a state assessment.
