CHS Program of Studies

 

 

Our Program of Studies will provide you with a complete overview of the diverse selection of courses available to you. It is our hope that you will review it carefully and make thoughtful choices for your academic program next year. As you consider your course selection, try to seek out academic challenges and learning opportunities that will prepare you for college, post-secondary education, and meaningful careers. Students are encouraged to talk with their school counselors and with parents and family members as they select an academic pathway through Coventry High School.

For all of our students, we offer a wide range of courses that bear college credits and encourage our students to speak to their teachers and school counselors about the many benefits of enrolling in Advanced Placement courses. We have Advanced Placement courses in AP English Literature, AP English Language, AP Biology, AP Environmental Science, AP Physics, AP Calculus, AP Chemistry, AP Statistics, AP U.S. History, AP Art History, AP European History, AP Psychology, AP Modern World History, AP Music Theory, AP Seminar and AP Research.

In addition to our Advanced Placement offerings, CHS has also established dual enrollment agreements with area universities to offer students the opportunity to earn college credits while taking classes here at CHS. In addition to our well established UConn Early College Experience Program, where we offer dual enrollment credit in many classes, we also have dual enrollment partnerships with Eastern Connecticut State University, University of Bridgeport, Sacred Heart University and Quinnipiac University for a variety of courses. Through our Goodwin University Partnership, seniors can apply to enroll in manufacturing courses, held at Goodwin, and earn both CHS and Goodwin University credit.

While we are not offering college credit through the Virtual High School Program, students are able to access other challenging curriculum not currently offered in our school. Our teachers also customize learning for students by providing opportunities for independent studies through which individualized course work is available.
