In addition to the High School Graduation requirements, please note the following:
Students must enroll in seven courses per semester unless an extraordinary circumstance exists and they have prior permission for a reduced schedule from the Director of Academics and Assistant Head of School. Students should meet with all parties involved in academic planning annually to develop and/or update a four-year plan to help them achieve their academic goals. Requested exceptions to graduation requirements will be considered individually by the Assistant Head of School. The Greene School reserves the right to evaluate each student’s transcript at the time of entrance to determine which transfer credits can be used to meet The Greene School’s graduation requirements and will be accepted from another school. Online courses may not be taken for credit in lieu of The Greene School’s courses unless there is an irresolvable scheduling conflict or the course is taken and approved for enrichment during the summer. Written approval from the Assistant Head of School is required. The Greene School must approve required courses taken outside of the School and may require the student to take additional testing for the courses to be accepted toward graduation. Students should assume that elective courses have the same level of rigor that they would find in a course that fills a specific graduation requirement. Elective courses are ever-evolving. Student feedback and proper teacher placement are necessary aspects of elective offerings. The School may cancel any course for which insufficient students pre-register. Students enrolled in an AP course must take the corresponding AP examination in May.
The Upper School Academic Program booklet offerings are proposed courses . Depending on anticipated enrollment, available staffing, and other scheduling considerations, these offerings may or may not appear in the final schedule. Students requesting specific courses should recognize that their requests do not guarantee that individual courses will appear in the final master schedule. Consequently, The Greene School may require students to substitute alternative requests to replace the courses that will not run.
Next-generation Courses are unique to The Greene School , redefining high school education with innovative, interdisciplinary approaches. These courses merge contemporary issues, emerging technologies, arts, and sports, offering immersive experiences that cultivate critical thinking, collaboration, and creativity. Through cutting-edge resources, students tackle real-world challenges, preparing them for the dynamic landscapes of the future.
