Graduation Pathways

Link to MLHS Graduation Pathways

High School & Beyond Plan

The High School & Beyond Plan helps students get the most out of high school and think about their future. Students create their personalized pathway throughout high school and revise their plan annually to accommodate changing interests or postsecondary goals on what they expect to do the year following graduation from high school. The postsecondary aspirations may include pathways for application to four-year colleges or universities, two-year community or technical colleges, apprenticeship programs, industry standard certificate programs, military training, or on-the-job training. The HSBP is completed by using the Schoolinks platform - app.schoolinks.com.

Students must meet at least one of these pathway options to graduate:

1. State Assessment: Meet or exceed the graduation scores in the Smarter Balanced Assessments (SBA) in English language arts (ELA) and mathematics or in WA-AIM (Washington Access to Instruction & Measurement). [SBA - 2548/2595]; [WA-AIM - 104/103]

2. Dual Credit: Earn at least one high school credit in ELA and at least one high school credit in math in dual credit courses (Running Start, College in the High School, and/or Career and Technical Education dual credit courses).

3. AP: For both ELA and math, earn a 3 or higher on certain Advanced Placement (AP) exams or pass the course with at least a C+. [Click link below for list of qualifying AP at MLHS]

4. SAT/ACT: Meet or exceed the graduation scores set by SBE in the ELA and math portions of the SAT or ACT. [SAT - 430/410]; [ACT - 16/14]

5. Transition Course: Pass a transition course in ELA and math which allows a student to place directly into a credit-bearing college level course. [Click link below for list of transition courses at MLHS]

6. Performance-based: Learn more about the newest pathway.

7. Combination: Meet any combination of at least one ELA and one math option listed in 1-6.

8. ASVAB: Meet standard on the ASVAB (Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery) by scoring at least the minimum established by the military for eligibility to serve in a branch of the armed services. [31]*

9. CTE Sequence: Complete a sequence of Career and Technical Education (CTE) courses.*

*Note: Students who pursue these pathways (ASVAB or CTE) do not need to meet English and math requirements separately. English and math content are embedded in both pathways—and a student who meets either the ASVAB standard or the CTE pathway requirements has met the graduation pathway requirement.

MIDDLE SCHOOL COURSES FOR HIGH SCHOOL CREDIT

Moses Lake School District students will receive high school credit for specific middle school courses that are recognized as high school rigor. When students enter high school, high school credit bearing middle school courses will be added to their student’s high school transcript. If it is desired that a high school bearing credit middle school course not to be included in the GPA calculation, a written request must be submitted to the high school counseling office by May 1st of student’s 11th grade year. Link to letter and form: Middle School to High School Course/Credit Opt-out Form

The following middle school courses are currently eligible for high school credit: Algebra, Geometry, Spanish 1, Spanish 2.

Students who have successfully completed a world language or math course while attending middle school in another school district must present a copy of their middle school report card for the course to be considered for approval by the high school principal.

College Academic Distribution Requirements (CADR):

PE WAIVERS (Non-credit PE Substitute)

Washington State guidelines make waivers for the physical component of PE available under certain conditions. Students granted the option to access a PE waiver must demonstrate proficiency/competency in the knowledge portion of the fitness requirement via an assessment in accordance with district policy. To qualify, a student must apply and meet at least one of these conditions:

Physical Disability – Attach verification from doctor or health care professional indicating that participation in a physical education class will be detrimental to student’s health.
Employment* – Attach verification from employer including dates and times of employment.
Religious Belief – Attach a note from parent/guardian if religion does not allow for participation in physical education.
Directed Athletics* – Participation in school district extracurricular athletic program. Student must complete season in good standing.
Military Science Tactics*
Other Good Causes* (Please Explain on an additional sheet of paper).

Students who qualify to access this waiver, must turn in a completed application with proper documentation and signatures within the first 15 days of the semester in which he/she wants to complete the waiver. Applications can be found in the counseling office or from this link: PE Waiver Application

All students will be required to pass a proficiency assessment at a pre-established level in order to earn the waiver, students can no longer simply earn a waiver by completing paperwork. Failure to show up for the exam or turn in a required fitness plan by the due date will result in not receiving a PE waiver for that semester.
If the student is approved for a waiver and passes the assessment, .5 of a PE requirement will be waived. If not, they will be expected to enroll in a PE class during the next semester or reapply for a waiver in a future semester.
A student will be eligible to waive 1.5 credit requirements, however it would take 3 semesters to do so, and require the completion of 3 separate assessments, each representing .5 of a requirement.

Visit Washington State’s Apprenticeship Program website for opportunities:

Become an Apprentice

MILITARY SERVICE

To join the military, applicants must meet age, educational, aptitude, physical and character requirements. These requirements vary by branch of service and vary between officers, who usually have a college degree, and enlisted personnel, who often do not. People are assigned an occupational specialty based on their aptitude, former training, and the needs of the military. All service members must sign a contract and commit to a minimum term of service. After joining the military, all enlistees receive general occupation-specific training.

Those considering enlisting in the military should learn as much as they can about military life before making a decision. Doing so is especially important when one is thinking about making the military a career. Speaking to friends and relatives with military experience is a good idea, as is comparing the pros & cons. The next step is talking to a recruiter, who can determine whether the applicant qualifies for enlistment, explain the various enlistment options, and tell which military occupational specialties currently have openings. Applicants must bear in mind that the recruiter’s job is to recruit promising applicants into his/her branch of military service, so the information the recruiter gives is likely to stress the positive aspects of military life in which he/she serves.

UPWARD BOUND/TRIO

TRIO Upward Bound provides opportunities for participants to succeed in their precollege performance and ultimately in their higher education pursuits. The goal of Upward Bound is to increase the rate at which participants, graduate from HS, enroll in a college that they believe is a good match for them and graduate from a university.

AIR FORCE JUNIOR ROTC (AFJROTC)

"To develop citizens of character dedicated to serving their nation and community."

Air Force Junior ROTC provides a military environment for character development through a variety of activities, community service, leadership education and aerospace history and science. Cadets learn self-reliance, military-style discipline and related leadership fundamentals. Every cadet is required to follow military customs and courtesies and grooming standards. They wear the Air Force uniform, practice marching, serve in community service opportunities, and participate in other military traditions. Optionally, cadets participate in drill team competitions, color and honor guard ceremonies, cyber security competitions, leadership laboratories and confidence building activities. The class is NOT a recruiting tool for the military and students who participate do not incur any obligation to the Air Force.

Registration Form Required: Please complete the MLHS AFJROTC Registration Form prior to enrolling in classes. Cadets will be enrolled in the program once completed registration forms are reviewed and approved by the Senior Aerospace Science Instructor. Here is the link for the Spanish Application: Aquí está el enlace para la solicitud en español.

COURSE EQUIVALENCIES

Students who take CTE equivalent courses may satisfy two graduation requirements while earning credit for a single course. Students who wish to use a two for one will need to inform their counselor to complete a 2 for 1 waiver to update Graduation Requirements in Skyward.

What are course equivalencies? Course equivalencies enable students taking Career and Technical Education (CTE) courses to satisfy two graduation requirements while earning one credit.

How does it work? For example, the courses, Engineering Drawing I and II, earns 1.0 credit toward the 26 required credits needed for graduation AND fulfills two graduation requirements. In the case of this example, both the CTE and Art requirements are fulfilled.

The student government is known as the Associated Student Body. The Student Senate is the legislative brand of the ASB. The Student Senate provides all students with a convenient means of giving direct input into the operation of student activities. Any student may run for any position with the exception of the two business manager positions. In addition to individual class government activities, there are a large variety of special interest clubs. These member clubs are coordinated by the Executive Council and consist of all member club presidents. Petitioning the ASB for recognition may form new groups.

Steps to Register

Step 1

High School & Beyond Plan: Students begin creating their four-year plan in 8th grade, and review this plan yearly on their High School and Beyond Plan website.

The High School and Beyond Plan should encompass both high school and post-high school plans. Different colleges, universities, and training programs have a variety of entrance requirements. To help determine the courses needed in high school research the specific requirements of any college or post-high school program of interest. Contact programs or high school counselor/career center for more information.

Please review pages 20-23 for sample MLHS 4 Year Course Plans that align with your desired post-secondary plan.

Step 2

Gradation Requirements: Check your graduation requirements on your personal Skyward. Review this information with a parent/guardian. Look and see what courses you have left to complete for graduation. If a class is in red, this means that subject requirement is not completed yet. If a class says “IP” this means it is currently in progress and you are enrolled in that current school year. See a school counselor for assistance if needed.

Step 3

Course Catalog Review: The Course Catalog is available online on the high school website.

Pay special attention to prerequisites and other course requirements to avoid mistakenly requesting courses that are not allowed. When a student requests a course he or she is not qualified to take, high school counselors reserve the right to add prerequisite course(s) to a student’s list of requests.

Step 4

Registration Preparation: Videos and step-by-step directions are provided on the MLHS website:

mlhs.mlsd161.org/54999_3

Choose alternate classes! If enough alternates are not chosen, high schools reserve the right to place students in courses not requested, if necessary, to ensure students maintain full on-track schedules.

Step 5

Online Registration: During registration students are given access to course catalog, their transcript, and instructions for entering course requests for next year online (videos available online as well on the following pages of this catalog).

After requests and alternates are chosen, students log into Skyward (Current 9-11th grade ONLY) and input their selections. Counselors will meet with each student to answer questions.

Step 6

Schedule Review: Student’s official schedules will be available to view on Skyward in late August.

BBCC CMST220: Communications

Public Speaking

Speech and Debate: a club, class, and competition sport, all rolled into one. Our motto: “Not Fear, But Fun!” We read children’s stories to practice voice inflection, tongue twisters to perfect pronunciation, and “ramble” to promote poise and effective eye contact. As a class, we prepare for and practice tournament events like Tall Tales, Impromptu Speaking, Public Forum Debate, and Congress. Individually, you’ll prepare, practice, and present your choice of a Speech, Debate, or Interpretive Event. (If you’re a Theater Arts student, those same skills transfer to “IEs” like Dramatic, Humorous, and Duo Interpretation.) And, as with other programs in the Fine Arts family, you can take Speech and Debate repeatedly for elective credit. So, get out from behind your desk, and make your teacher sit, for a change! Speech and Debate: who knew it could be so much fun?

Communication Studies at BBCC: Our curriculum focuses on the study of human communication and how meaning is created and exchanged in a of variety of contexts to a variety of audiences. Our program offers a wide variety of classes to choose from so that students can study everything from mass media to interpersonal communication to intercultural communication.

Pre-Nursing / CNA

Are you caring, detail oriented and adaptable? Do you like to help people of all ages? Students will learn about the body systems, illnesses and conditions, professionalism and teamwork, and basic nursing skills. Once students meet the criteria, they are able to apply their knowledge and skills while caring for real patients/residents, at clinical rotations, in our local facilities. Multiple industry certifications are available, including: Healthcare Provider CPR and AED, First Aid, HIPPA, Food Handlers and Blood borne Pathogen. Tech prep credits are available. Successful completion of all requirements, including clinical rotations, allows eligibility for the Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) State Licensing Examinations.

ProMed has a handbook that spells out the requirements for the class and this goes home with the students (and is on the CBTECH website) for the parents to sign and return. When signing students up for the class it is important to remember a few things.

-Our clinical sites want the students to be at least 17 when they come in for their clinical experience. ALL students must be 17 years old by December 31st and in the 11th or 12th grade of that school year in order to be accepted into the program.

-The students must provide their own transportation to and from the clinical setting.

-We have clinical settings in: Ephrata, Moses Lake and Soap Lake.

-The students will attend a combination of these sites. I can not guarantee which sites a student will attend. That is why transportation is so important.

-The one other really important piece is attendance. They can not miss a lot of school and be successful in this class. When we go to the Clinical rotations they function under the umbrella of my license and the license of the clinical instructor, and they must have the skills to do that in a safe manner. It must be safe for the student, residents and clinical instructor to have them there. If they don’t spend time practicing they will not be allowed to go to clinicals and therefore will not qualify for Tech Prep credits for the State CNA testing.

In review: All students MUST be 17 by December 31st of that school year AND all students MUST provide their own transportation to and from the clinical setting.
