Building a CAL/Home High School Schedule

How CAL's program works with your high school's program

The CAL program has been designed to work in conjunction with your home high school, so that you will be able to build a schedule that meets your high school's graduation requirements and prepares you for life after high school — whether you are going into the work force, an occupational training program, or college. The chart below, for example, outlines the course sequence for a student in the Medical/Health Sciences program:

Example:

Medical/Health Sciences: Required Courses
Grade 11			Grade 12
CAL Courses	Home HS Courses		CAL Courses	Home HS Courses
Navigating the World of Health Sciences	Social Studies		Clinical Lab Practice	Elective
Medical Calculations and Terminology	Elective		Clinical Experience	Elective
Chemistry (HS or ECO) (Science)	Elective		Anatomy and Physiology (Science)	Elective
Technology and Society (English)	Elective		College Composition: Health Sci. Focus (English)	Elective

What your schedule will actually look like depends upon your interests and your post-high school plans. To get an idea of what your schedule might look like if you attend CAL, see the schedule below for a student who is planning to attend a four-year college after high school graduation:

Example:
