GUIDE  \n2025-2026  \nSACRED HEART-GRIFFIN  \n1200 W. Washington Street Springfield, Illinois 62702  \n(217) 787-1595  \nSHG MISSION STATEMENT  \nSacred Heart-Griffin is a Catholic, college preparatory highschool that welcomes a diverse population to pursue academic excellence within the Dominican values of study, prayer, service and community.  \nSHG TARGET GOALS (across the curriculum)  \n• All students will improve their oral communication skills.  \n• All students will improve their written communication skills.  \n• All students will demonstrate the capability to use higher order critical thinking skills and problem-solving skills.  \n• All students will increase their skills to enhance the Christian community.  \nCommon Core State Standards are integrated into the curriculum. Many online sources are available. ([See](See www.tcoe.org/ers)[ ](See www.tcoe.org/ers)[www.tcoe.org/ers](See www.tcoe.org/ers))  \nThe National Standards and Benchmarks for Effective Elementary and Secondary Catholic Schools (NSBECS) were designed to describe how the most mission-driven, program effective, and well-managed Catholics [schools operate.

Visit www.ncea.org)  \nSERVICE PROGRAM  \nAs a Catholic high school, Sacred Heart-Griffin is dedicated to the truth of Christian values as proclaimed in the Gospel, as fostered in a Christian community, that serves the larger community. The Service Program Coordinator acts as a facilitator of requests from local, non-profit organizations. Service to one’s school, church, and community accumulates over the student’s tenure at Sacred Heart-Griffin in order to meet the current graduation requirement.  \n(minimum of 20 hours per year/80 hours total.)  \nCURRICULUM GUIDE  \nIntroduction  \nThis guide is an important part of your academic planning for the next four years.  \nTake note of required courses and necessary credits for graduation. Plan your program with the help of the outline provided at preregistration. Consider your special interests, but try to broaden and enrich your background as well. Check on the requirements for admittance to colleges of your interest.  \nEach year you will discuss your choices with parents, teachers, and guidance counselors before finalizing your schedule. Keep this book as a reference during your years at SHG. Revisions will be published each year. Counselors will inform students of the revisions prior to registering.  \nAchievement of Credit  \nAll courses required for graduation must be taken at SHG (or a recognized high school in case of transfers) . Special arrangements are made for CACC students.  \nSummer school courses, correspondence courses from other high schools or community colleges, courses transferred from other high schools or homeschools, as well as courses retaken for passing grades are not computed in the student’s GPA. Credit for these courses will be placed on the student’s permanent record with administrative approval. SHG Dual Credit offerings are computed in the student’s GPA and recorded on the permanent record.  \nStudents must submit credits earned through correspondence courses or through credit recovery summer school to the Registrar.  \nDue to extenuating circumstances, there may be times that a student requests to audit a class required for graduation as a “Pass/Fail” grade. Decisions for this request will be made on a case by case basis and will require administrative approval. If the class is approved as an audited class, the class will count as a unit of credit when calculating the student’s GPA.  \nThe Valedictorian and Salutatorian of the graduating class must have attended SHG for eight semesters.  \nCourse Load and Credit Requirements  \n• All students must be enrolled in a minimum of seven (7) credits of study for the year.  \n• Two study halls are not allowed during any single semester.  \n• Courses shall be taken in the sequence set by ","cbCaicvoXR8CzpX8","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicvoXR8CzpX8","pdf",979053,61,"English","# Introduction\n## Achievement of Credit\n## Course Load and Credit Requirements\n## Minimum Graduation Requirements","[{\"question\":\"How are required graduation courses and credits handled in the 2025-2026 plan?\",\"answer\":\"The guide emphasizes required courses must be taken at Sacred Heart-Griffin (or a recognized high school for transfers) and advises planning credits over the four-year period to meet graduation expectations.\"},{\"question\":\"Do summer school, correspondence, or transferred courses affect a student’s GPA?\",\"answer\":\"Summer school courses and correspondence courses from other schools or community colleges are not computed in the student’s GPA, while SHG dual credit offerings are computed in the GPA and recorded on the permanent record.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the minimum graduation requirements for credits at SHG?\",\"answer\":\"A total of 26 credits is required for graduation, with subject-specific minimums including Theology (4.0), English (4.0), Social Science (2.5), Science (3.0), and Math (3.0), plus Physical Education/Health, World Language, and additional requirements by the guide’s table.\"}]","2025-2026 Curriculum Guide - Sacred Heart-Griffin | PDF",154]
