Social Studies

Earning an Academic Honors Diploma requires that students fulfill 7 of 8 criteria established by the Ohio Department of Education. One of the criteria is to have earned four units of social studies. If you intend to earn an Academic Honors Diploma it may be necessary for you to take a full year (or two semesters) of Social Studies electives during your elective year. See the “Awards” section of the Program of Studies for further details.  Additionally, students may take AP World History, AP European History, IB History Year 1 (provided that you also take IB History Year 2 as a senior), or IB LABS Year 1 (provided that you also take IB LABS Year 2 as a senior) to satisfy the senior year Global History requirement as a junior.
