2015-2016 10th – 11th – 12th Grade
REGISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR STUDENTS
As a student enrolled in Crestview High School, you are given the opportunity to select coursework each spring
for the following year. It is important that you involve your parents in course selection, that you make certain
you meet the prerequisites, and that you keep high school graduation requirements and career objectives in
mind. This guide is designed to aid you in making appropriate choices by providing brief program and course
descriptions, prerequisites, and other information related to this process. In order to complete registration
successfully, you are urged to follow the steps identified below:
1. READ the curriculum guide carefully.
2. REVIEW the list of graduation requirements and determine which requirements have been met and
which courses need to be taken next year. Consider courses which need to be repeated because of lost
credit.
3. TALK to your parents and teachers about course selections and appropriate academic levels (general,
honors, advanced studies, or vocational) as determined by your classroom teacher.
 General – These courses are designed for in-depth instruction that challenges students. These
classes are suitable for all students.
 Honors – These courses are designed for self-motivated students who wish to pursue a more
challenging curriculum while in high school.
 Advanced Studies (Advanced Placement/AICE) – These college-level courses are designed for
highly motivated students who wish to pursue potential college credit in high school.
 Vocational – These courses are designed to prepare students for employment and/or postsecondary education in a career of their choice.
4. SELECT courses that will correspond to or complement your goals for the future.
Course selection represents a commitment on the part of the student and parent to complete the schedule
of classes chosen; however, requests for schedule changes will be considered for the following reasons:
a.
b.
c.
d.
Scheduling error (example – request Algebra I and receive Algebra II)
Failure to complete a prerequisite course or requirement
Graduation or college requirement omitted from schedule
Special programs requiring unique schedules (examples – choral, instrumental, vocational,
Exceptional Student Education, dual enrollment, Advanced Placement, AICE)
e. Summer School course completion (if summer school is available)
f. Duplicate course
g. Blank period on schedule
Special Note: Additionally, the administration reserves the right to make necessary changes based on class
size and teacher load as determined by the state of Florida class size requirements.

session, if held, shall be considered to be an extension of
the second (spring) semester.
Each semester thereafter:
An athlete must maintain a cumulative 2.0 grade point
average on a 4.0 scale, or its equivalent, in all courses
he/she takes to be eligible each semester.

COURSE DIFFICULTY LEVELS
Colleges want students to be as well prepared as possible. CHS offers three levels of instructional difficulty: regular,
honors, and Advanced Studies (Advanced Placement and AICE courses). To move from one level to the next, students must
earn an “A” or “B” in that subject area and have that subject area teacher recommend the student for higher level work.
Students are strongly encouraged by universities, colleges, and CHS to strive for the highest, most rigorous level of
coursework in which they can be successful.
SELECTION OF HONOR GRADUATES
A district-weighted grade point average will be used to calculate class rank and honors designations. At the end of the
seventh semester for 24-credit graduates and the end of the fifth semester for the 18-credit graduates, honor graduates
will be determined by the following scale:
Summa Cum Laude
4.5 and above
Magna Cum Laude
4.2 – 4.49
Cum Laude
4.0 – 4.19
In order to be considered an honors graduate, students must be enrolled in the same year-long course at the same level
and receive a grade for the eighth semester or have completed their four required courses by the end of the seventh
semester.
24-Credit Graduates – At the end of the seventh semester, honor graduates will be determined by averaging the following
highest 19 credits.
3.5 English Credits
3.5 Social Science Credits
3.5 Math Credits
3.5 Science Credits
1.5 Foreign Language Credits of the same language
19.0 Total
The determination of the TOP 1% of students will be based on Cumulative GPA.
COLLEGE BOARD ADVANCED PLACEMENT
The Advanced Placement Program® is a cooperative educational endeavor between secondary schools and colleges and
universities. Since its inception in 1955, the Program has provided motivated high school students with the opportunity
to take college-level courses in a high school setting. Students who participate in the Program not only gain college-level
skills, but in many cases they also earn college credit by scoring a 3 or higher on the AP exam at the end of the course. AP
courses are taught by dedicated and enthusiastic high school teachers who follow course guidelines developed and
published by the College Board. All AP courses are 5.0 weighted courses. The AP exam score is not part of the student’s
classroom grade. For more information on our AP Program, visit or contact the guidance department. The College Board
recognizes students each year who successfully pass three or more Advanced Placement Exams each year.

ADVANCED INTERNATIONAL CERTIFICATE OF EDUCATION (AICE)
The AICE program is an international Diploma that students can earn via an advanced academic curriculum and assessment
program written and administered by a non-profit department of the University of Cambridge in England. For over 160
years the prestigious University of Cambridge has been setting worldwide standards through their examinations. Passing
grades available on AICE exams range from A to E with A being the highest. Performance of students below the threshold
of a CIE grade of E receive a grade of U, ungraded, which is not considered as passing. ACIE grade of E most closely
correlates with an Advanced Placement exam grade of 3 and a US grade of C. All public universities and community
colleges in Florida award up to 30 hours of college credits for AICE exams passed.
AICE courses available at Crestview High School:
1009360 General Paper

All students enrolled in an AICE class will take the AICE Exam at the end of the school year.
PLACEMENT OF STUDENTS IN INTENSIVE READING
Students receiving a Level 1 on FSA/FCAT 2.0 Reading, regardless of promotion or retention status, will be placed in an
Intensive Reading class the following year.
It is recommended that students who routinely score level 1 or 2 on FSA/FCAT Reading be placed in levels of classes which
challenge the student within a range of their ability for success.
NO-CLASS OPTION (JUNIORS AND SENIORS ONLY)
Only students on track for graduation with a minimum of 14 credits, a 245 or higher on FCAT Reading, a passing score on
the Algebra EOC, and a cumulative unweighted GPA of 2.50, will be allowed to register for a No-Class period. Requests for
a No-Class should be made at the time of registration and the completed notarized parent form MUST be returned
BEFORE the No-Class will be scheduled. Final approval for 11th and 12th graders making a request will occur after
FCAT scores and GPA’s are received during the summer. Requests for a No-Class period will not be considered
after the beginning of each semester due to courses and teachers’ schedules being built based on
student requests.

Colleges want students to be as well prepared as possible. CHS offers three levels of instructional difficulty: regular,
honors, and Advanced Studies (Advanced Placement courses). To move from one level to the next, students must earn an
“A” or “B” in that subject area and have that subject area teacher recommend the student for higher level work. Students
are strongly encouraged by universities, colleges, and CHS to strive for the highest, most rigorous level of coursework in
which they can be successful.
