PTHS Student Handbook 2024-2025
Upon request, the school will provide a student and his or her parent or guardian any support or assistance necessary to comply with this requirement.
The above list gives a total of 16 1/2 credits. The remaining credits needed for graduation will come from elective courses. *1 Students are required to be enrolled in physical education (health and driver education included) every semester that they are enrolled in school unless exempted by Board of Education Policy. Students not physically capable of participating in P.E. classes must have a physician’s written recommendation. *2 The additional 1/2 credit in social studies may be taken from the following: World Geography, Illinois Studies, Psychology, Sociology, Economics, or World History. *3 All Constitution tests must be passed as administered by the Social Studies Department/Special Education Department. *4 Consumer Education, Consumer Management, Economics, Ag Bus Management, or Interrelated Cooperative Education may be taken to meet the consumer education requirement. *5 One (1) unit or some combination equaling one unit. Grade-Level Status ● Grade-level status will be determined at the end of each academic year and will be as follows: ○ Sophomore - 6 credits
○ Junior - 12 credits ○ Senior - 18 credits
● Grade-level status is determined by credits earned, not how many years a student has attended PTHS. Unless otherwise approved by the Administration, only students who have earned junior or senior status and are on track to graduate will be able to attend prom and have access to select courses including those in the Livingston Area Career Center, Blended Learning, and On-line Learning.
