  • More About Integrated and Specialized Academic Credits:

    The New York State Education Department (NYSED) approves Career and Technical Education (CTE) courses with integrated and/or specialized content for English, math and science that qualifies them for graduation credits in these areas. The following credits are approved by the NYSED after completion of 2 years in certified programs:

    English: 1.0 credit

    that satisfies the 4th-year requirement.

    Math: 1.0 credit

    that satisfies the 3rd-year requirement.

    Science: 1.0 credit

    that satisfies the 3rd-year requirement.

    Social Studies: 0.5 credit

    that satisfies the Participation in Government requirement.

    Health: 0.5 credit

    that satisfies this requirement.

    If these academic credits are used to meet graduation requirements, CTE credits will be proportionately reduced; i.e.: if 1.0 credit is applied to English, total CTE credit is reduced from 4.0 to 3.0. For more information, call the Counseling Office at 516-622- 6814.

    *Technical Academic credits are granted at the discretion of the district.
