Graduation Preparation
During their time as 9th and 10th-graders, students assess their personal learning styles in their respective advisory classes and begin to identify areas of interest.
During Junior year, students map their goals and options in more detail, and work one-on-one and in small groups with d.tech’s Beyond d.tech Counselor, Ingrid Mao to help them discover their aspirations and the steps necessary to achieve them by the end of senior year.
Design Tech High School graduation requirements meet or exceed the University of California A-G standards. The program does not include AP classes. However, students who wish to go deeper into a subject, or take on a higher level of rigor, may take Honors-level classes in English (2-4), Chemistry, Biology, Advanced Physics, Advanced Environmental Science, Calculus & Advanced Statistics. Juniors and seniors may also be eligible to take concurrent enrollment classes at local community colleges.
Our Beyond d.tech Counselor also offers parent and student education workshops throughout the year.
