H.O.P.E.
HOPE is a requirement for graduation and includes topics such as Mental/Social Health, Alcohol and Drug Prevention, and Internet Safety. It is recommended for students to take HOPE brick and mortar with a teacher to receive the full intent of the Health Opportunities through Physical Education (HOPE) course. However, if you see a need for your student to take this course over the summer due to a schedule conflict or some other reason, please keep the following in mind:
- If your student is pursuing an AICE or IB diploma, HOPE is not a graduation requirement for students that receive this type of diploma
- Once the course is taken and completed, it cannot be removed from the high school transcript no matter what the grade is
- If your student requests the HOPE course from now until March 1 and begin the class by March 1, they will have the opportunity to take the class through SJVS – after March 1 until school starts in August, students will take the course through FLVS
