Graduation Policy and Requirements
 
Five academic credit courses must be taken each year; a sixth and/or seventh academic subject my be taken by students who are qualified. Fenwick offers an honors program for students of exceptional ability. Twenty-one credits and physical education are needed for graduation. Opportunity for selecting elective courses is available.
 
Elective classes may be taken provided a student's cumulative grade point indicated that attempting a sixth course would be desirable and in the student's best interests.
 
Individual departments set criteria in honors level classes. It is important that a student choose a course not for its weighted grade, but rather because of sincere interest in the course content and its applicability to the student's future academic pursuits.
