 Cold War History – Can be taken as a history elective or as a 4 th history after AP US History – Does not replace American History I and II  Course Description: This course will acquaint students with the Cold War, along with its causes and ultimate impact on international relationships and domestic policies. Historical, geographical, economic, and cultural lenses will be used to examine primary and secondary sources on the subject. Critical reading, writing, and thinking will be a focus in this course.  Essentials of College Math – For seniors who are 2 or 4 year college bound  Course Description: This course emphasizes understanding of math concepts rather than just memorizing procedures. Students learn the context behind the procedure: why to use a certain formula or method to solve a problem, for example. This equips them with higher-order thinking to apply math skills, functions and concepts in different situations. The course prepares students for college-level math assignments based on the content. This course is not designed to prepare students for college-level math in STEM majors.  Spanish II for Native Speakers – Must have Spanish I for Native Speakers credit – Honors credit NEW COURSES

 Drafting II Architecture – Honors Option  Prerequisite: Drafting I Course Description: This course focuses on the principles, concepts, and use of complex drawing tools used in the field of architecture, structural systems and construction. Emphasis is placed on the use of CAD to create floor plans, wall sections, and elevation drawings. Mathematics, science, and visual design concepts are reinforced. *This course is eligible for Honors weight.  Introduction to Computer Science  Course Description: Students will dive into computers and the internet to learn not just how to use these tools effectively, but how they work, how we interact with them, and how to be a creator of technology tools. This course is designed to allow students to explore a variety of computer science topics, such as web design, human computer interactions, programming, problem solving, data analysis and robotics. Students will develop critical thinking, logic, and problem solving skills relevant to today’s technology NEW CTE WAHS

 Pharmacy Technician – Must have taken Health Science II  Course Description: This course has self-paced, on-line instruction designed to prepare high school seniors for a pharmacy technician career. Topics included in this course are federal law, medication used in major body systems, calculations, and pharmacy operations. Mathematics is reinforced in this course. This course is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (APCE). Upon successful completion of this course and after graduation, the student is eligible to take the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board (PTCB) exam.  PLTW (IV) – Engineering Design and Development  Course Description: In this capstone Project Lead the Way (PLTW) Pathway to Engineering (PTE) course, students will work in teams to research, design, test and construct a solution to an open-ended engineering problem. The product development life cycle and a design process are used to guide and help the team to reach a solution to the problem. The team presents and defends their solution to a panel of outside reviewers at the conclusion of the course. This course allows students to apply all the skills and knowledge learned in previous Project Lead the Way courses. The use of 3D design software helps students design solutions to the problem their team has chosen. This course also engages students in time management and teamwork skills, a valuable skill set for students in the future. NEW CTEC

 Network Engineering Technology I  Course Description: This course introduces the architecture, structure, functions, components, and models of the Internet and other computer networks. The principles and structure of IP addressing and the fundamentals of Ethernet concepts, media, and operations are introduced to provide a foundation for the curriculum. By the end of the course, students will be able to build simple LANs, perform basic configurations for routers and switches, and implement IP addressing schemes. This course uses Cisco Introduction to Networks curriculum and must be conducted using the Cisco Networking Academy connection. English language arts, mathematics, and science are reinforced. This course helps prepare students for the Cisco Certified Entry Networking Technician (CCENT) certificate.  Computer Engineering Technology I  Course Description: This course includes the skills required for installing and maintaining hardware. It includes objectives in the following five domains, a) PC Hardware, b) Networking, c) Laptops, d) Printers, and e) Operational Procedures. English language arts, mathematics, and science are reinforced. This course helps prepare students for the CompTIA A+ credential. NEW CTE CTEC

 SAS Programming I – Must have Comp Prog I or AP Computer Science  Course Description: This course is the entry point for students to learn SAS programming. Students will learn how to plan and write SAS programs to solve common data analysis problems. Instruction provides practice running and debugging programs. The emphasis is placed on reading input data, creating list and summary reports, defining new variables, executing code conditionally, reading raw data files and SAS data sets, and writing the results to SAS data sets. Mathematics is reinforced.  Scientific Visualization II – Must have Scientific Visualization I  Prerequisite: Scientific & Technical Visualization I Course Description: This course provides students with advanced skills in the use of complex visualization tools for the study of science, technology, or mathematical concepts. Students design and develop increasingly complex data and concept-driven visualization models. Students use complex 2D and 3D graphics, animation, editing, and image analysis tools to better understand, illustrate, and explain concepts. Students present technical, mathematical, and/or scientific concepts and principles. Activities are structured to integrate physical and social sciences, mathematics, English language arts, and art.
