Notice to Students and Parents
Concerning Course Donations
In an effort to provide educational enhancements to students beyond the curriculum routinely offered, donations in certain courses historically have been sought
in Seminole County Public Schools on a voluntary contribution basis. Every
encouragement is given to students and parents to assist Lake Brantley High
School in continuing the practice of course embellishment that these donations
make possible. While such assistance is a practical necessity to maintain current
practices, no student shall be denied the opportunity either to take any course or
to participate fully in all aspects of a course in which donations are sought. Thank
you for your understanding and for your commitment to excellence.
Band, Chorus, ROTC, and Dance Performance, because of the numerous competitions and performance events associated, are considered to be extracurricular
activities in which fees may be required for items such as uniforms, dry cleaning,
workshops and clinics, etc. Additionally, student enrollment in specific courses
may be required for participation in these activities.
Technology Use In Learning,
Motivation, and Recognition
Seminole County Public Schools believes technology is a valuable educational tool.
All classroom teachers use technology as an instructional tool. Some examples
of such activities are:
• Use of the Internet to access encyclopedias, magazines, the district's media/
library catalog, web sites for educational projects, on-line district and state
classes and to conduct research in preparation for a project or presentation.
• Students are photographed or videotaped for the purposes of daily school news
broadcasts and yearbooks. Photographs or videos of students are also placed
on school/district web pages as a form of recognition for special achievements,
activities, projects and as a motivation to be creative.
• Student works are published on the Web (Internet) to share stories, poems
and other creative works with other students and the school community and
to provide motivation for writing.
If you wish to have your student excluded from any of the preceding activities,
exclusion (opt-out) forms are available on the district website and at your
student's school.

Diploma Pathway Requirements
In the spring of 2013 the Florida Legislature created new diploma options for the students of Florida. In doing so, they have offered
students more choice as well as an opportunity to align their education to their future college and career plans. In Seminole County we refer
to these new choices as Diploma Pathways. We call them Pathways because we believe that students should use their time in high school to
embark on their own personal Pathway to success. Students may now choose a Pathway that will result in a standard high school diploma,
a high school diploma connected with industry certification, or a diploma designed to rigorously prepare them for the university setting.
In the chart below you will find the Diploma Pathways and the corresponding expectations associated with each one. In addition to
those offered by the state of Florida, Seminole County also offers the Scholars with Distinction Pathway. This very rigorous Pathway will
challenge even the most talented and dedicated students to an even higher level of academic accomplishment.
Seminole County will start each and every student on the Scholars Pathway. We want to ensure that students are setting their academic
goals high as they begin high school. Through performance and self-selection, students and their families may opt to change Pathways as
they progress through high school. Our goal is to have all students qualify to earn a Scholars Pathway diploma. In the end, whether it is
a Standard Pathway diploma, a Merit Designation Pathway (Industry Certification) diploma, a Scholars Pathway diploma, or a Scholars’
with Distinction Pathway diploma, we want every student in Seminole County to exit our school system as a graduate.
Your administrators and guidance counselors are available to provide further guidance on what each of the Pathways requires.

Career Pathways
Student’s Head-Start on a College Degree or Certificate
Career Pathways is a partnership between Seminole County Public Schools (SCPS) and Seminole State
College of Florida designed to provide at no cost to the students the opportunity to get a head-start in
preparing for college and a career.
How does it work?
A student begins Career Pathways in high school by exploring career interests through a specified sequence
of high school Career and Technical Education elective courses. Upon successful completion of the required sequence of courses (B or above average required in the courses), the student will be eligible to take
a college-level assessment test. If the student passes the assessment, enrolls in Seminole State within 24
months after graduating from high school and passes at least one college credit course, he/she will receive
college credit for specified courses which lead to the completion of an Associate in Science Degree or
Technical Certificate. In program areas that are common to both Seminole State and Valencia College,
Career Pathways credits may be awarded at either college. There is no credit-hour fee charged for these
Career Pathways college credits.
Below is a listing of Seminole County Career Pathways programs, including college credits earned
and college savings at Seminole State (based on 2013 – 2014 fees), for students successfully passing the
assessment test(s). Please see the Seminole County Public Schools website for specific programs in each

Florida Career and Professional Education Act - CAPE Academy
In 2007 the Florida Legislature passed the Career and Professional Education Act. (Florida Career and Professional Education
Act (SB 1232) in section 1003.491, Florida Statutes (F.S.). The purpose of the Act was to provide a statewide planning partnership between the business and education communities in order to attract, expand, and retain targeted, high-value industry
and to sustain a strong, knowledge-based economy. The objectives of the Act are as follows:
To improve middle and high school academic performance by providing rigorous and relevant curriculum opportunities;
To provide rigorous and relevant career-themed courses that articulates to postsecondary-level coursework and lead to industry
certification;
• To support local and regional economic development;
• To respond to Florida’s critical workforce needs; and
• To provide state residents with access to high-wage and high-demand careers.
To implement the Act, the Florida Department of Education (FDOE), the Agency for Workforce Innovation (AWI), and
Workforce Florida, Inc (WFI) are partnered together. At the local level, the Act mandates the developments of a local strategic plan prepared by the school districts with the participation of regional workforce boards and postsecondary institutions.
A key component of this Act is state-approved industry certifications that are critical to Florida’s employers. The legislation
tasked AWI with defining “Industry Certification.” The agency has provided DOE with the following definition:
“A voluntary process, through which individuals are assesses by an independent, third party certifying entity using predetermined standards for knowledge, skills and competencies, resulting in the award of a time-limited credential that is included
in the workforce system’s targeted occupation list or determined to be an occupation that is critical, emerging or addresses a
local need."
CAPE Academies are small learning communities that combine Career and Tech, and Academic learning. These Academies
can be“Wall to Wall” or a school within a school.
Upon graduation, Academies will receive weighted funding for each student who passes an Industry Certification test. Participation in certification testing is also used in the calculation of school’s grade.
