Trade offerings may vary by grade level, age eligibility, and program availability.

📌 Trade Program Eligibility Requirements

To participate in trade and career programs, students must maintain a minimum B average (or equivalent) and remain in good academic standing.

Why We Require a B Average

This requirement is intentional and supportive—not punitive.

Students who maintain a B average have demonstrated the ability to:

stay focused on daily academic responsibilities
manage their time effectively
balance schoolwork, trade training, and personal life
remain accountable for assignments, deadlines, and expectations

Trade programs require responsibility, consistency, and discipline—skills that are essential not only for career success, but for life beyond school. Maintaining a B average shows that a student is in control of their academic responsibilities while also developing the capacity to participate in additional programs.

This standard helps ensure that students:

do not fall behind academically
learn how to balance academics, skills training, and a healthy social life
build strong habits that carry into adulthood

🔄 Academic Support & Continued Eligibility

Students who temporarily fall below the required academic average are not penalized. Instead:

academic support and guidance are provided
progress is monitored
students may return to trade programs once eligibility is restored

Our goal is student growth, accountability, and long-term success.

🔁 Dual Academic & Trade Pathway

Eligible students may participate in both:

High School Academics
Trade & Career Training

This dual pathway allows students to:

remain academically engaged
build real-world, practical skills
prepare for graduation, employment, entrepreneurship, or certification pathways
