COURSE CHANGES FOR 2014-2015
General Health Science Standards have been updated and will go into effect in the 2014- 2015 school year. There will be some name adjustment to make the Health Science Courses flow in sequence the way that all other health science courses do. Health Science will no longer begin with Intro to Health Science. Health Science will begin with Health Science 1. Health Science 1 will be a 9 week course and is 1 unit . Health Science 2 will be a 9 week course and is 1 unit. Clinical Studies (CNA) can only be taken in the 12th grade the class is semester long and 2 units.
Please note how the classes are listed in the course schedule. **This is a nine week course. You must take Health Science 1 before you can take Health Science 2. Health Science 1 will be offered 1st nine weeks. The Health Science 2 is offered in the 2nd nine weeks**. The two classes are paired together to be completed in one semester. Clinical Studies (CNA) can only be taken in the 12 grade. Prerequisite: Health Science 1 & 2.
10 MECHATRONICS INTEGRATED TECHNOLOGIES (Welding)

CATE Concentrator
A CATE Concentrator is a secondary student with an assigned CIP code who has earned 3 Carnegie units of credit in a state-recognized CATE program. A state-recognized CATE program must be composed of an approved sequence of career and technology education course leading to a career goal and must include a minimum of 4 Carnegie units of credit.
CIP Code The Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) codes designate the specific CATE programs and are used for federal reporting and for assessing the federal Perkins accountability indicators. Every student identified and CATE Concentrator must be assigned a CIP code approved by the OCTE.
Custom/Cross-Cluster CIP Code The intent for requesting Custom/Cross-Cluster Program Approval is for a program which is designed to specifically match a student’s career goals if
11 those goals do not fall within any of the current CATE approved programs. Such customizing may even involve allowing a student to select related courses from different CATE cluster areas.
Completer A Completer is a CATE concentrator who has earned all of the required units in a state recognized CATE program identified by the assigned CIP code.
Completion Year The Completion Year indicates the semester and the year in which the student completed the required units in a state-recognized CATE program.
