<p>We have to have 1 year of Phys Ed, and 1 year of a fine art, like art or drama, to graduate, and two years of a foreign language. </p>
<p>They only offer two languages, Spanish and Italian, and 95% of my school is Hispanic, being bilingual since we could talk, so I find that kind of useless.</p>
<p>They are THINKING about adding French ._.</p>
<p>^Dooooooooooooooooooo itttttttttttttttttttttt</p>
<p>4 semesters of PE (not that bad) and 1 semester of Health. That’s pretty much it.</p>
<p>I love PE. 
I don’t understand why people hate it.</p>
<p>4 years of Engrish
3 years of Math (I’ll have 5-6)
3 years of Science (I’ll have 7-8)
1.5 years of Art
1 year of Technology
2 years of PE
3 years of Social Studies</p>
<p>“I love PE. I don’t understand why people hate it.” </p>
<p>Because it’s a joke and a waste of time. There are classes I could be taking instead which would actually be useful, and look better on a transcript.</p>
<p>Yeah, 3 semesters of physical ed and 2 semesters of art. I, myself, love art, but I think it’s ridiculous having to hear all the math/science nerds ***** about how much a joke the class is while I’m trying to draw stuff lol.</p>
<p>I’m in IB which pretty much requires a ton of stuff to somehow cram into your schedule.</p>
<p>In addition to all the core classes, my COUNTY requires an extra year of history for some reason. Also, we need a year of career development, which in my school basically means you either have to work at the cafeteria or be a teacher’s assistant, which is a complete waste of time. Hopefully they waive that requirement for people in Academic Decathlon, which is what my teacher is trying to do, but I worry about my fellow IBers that don’t have Decathlon.</p>
<p>^^3 semesters? Don’t complain.
We have to complete 11/12 seasons of PE or a sport, which you can’t do during the school day, so you must waste your time at school until 5pm three times a week doing something pointless. One trimester off senior year is all you get during all of high school.</p>
<p>I like how many responses this thread has gotten… :D</p>
<p>Lol, you kidding me? Starting a thread for people to complain is bound to be gold.</p>
<p>I have to take PE and pass a test. I can’t pass the test.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>What if you self-study during that period? :)</p>
<p>
Lol. So true.</p>
<p>Haha guess so.</p>
<p>So my schools pretty decent right. Except when it comes to graduation requirements. A 6 Page research analysis paper on a topic that somewhat relates to our world. Community service relating to that paper. and finally a civic action presentation</p>
<p>We have quite a bit.
4 years of math
4 years of english
4 years of history

1 year of Hawaiian Studies (So ■■■■■■■■)
1 year of Guidance/Health
+
Senior Project (research, essay, and presentation on something affecting our community)</p>
<p>It’s so f***** great that class of 2013 was the first class in which the senior project became mandatory.
Btw that was sarcasm.</p>
<p>my school’s pretty lenient on the graduation requirements. nonetheless my school has one of the lowest graduation to senior ratio in the district/county. </p>
<p>i disliked health, but i was lucky enough to take it as a summer school class as my district cut summer school due to budget cuts. </p>
<p>my school requires a schedule with 5 classes. i took 7 classes in one semester, therefore i have a surplus of credits. it sucks taking unnecessary classes just to fill up a schedule.</p>
<p>6 semesters of gym. And if you take drivers ed privately, 7 semesters of gym. Ughhhh</p>
<p>4 years English
3 years Math (one has to be Geometry)
2 years Science
2 years Social Studies (One has to be US History)
.5 year Health
.5 year Consumer Education
1 elective (Spanish, Art, Home Ec, Industrial Tech, etc)</p>
<p>and get this, 4 years Physical Education. I don’t what rational person would say that kickball is more important that science, math, and social studies. No wonder all those European and Asian countries are dominating us on those tests.</p>
