High School Curriculum

Graduation from Lake George Jr.-Sr. High School requires the fulfillment of course and examination
requirements as outlined by the New York State Board of Regents. The Board of Regents approved
regulations, known as 4+1 Multiple Pathways, which allow students to choose from among multiple
pathways to meet the assessment requirements for earning a Regents or local diploma. Students now have
the following options:

  • Required four (4): one Regents exam each in English Language Arts (ELA), math, science and social
    studies
  • Plus any one (1) of the following assessment requirements:
  • Additional Regents exam in math, science and social studies; or
  • A department-approved career and technical education (CTE) pathway assessment, following
    successful completion of an approved CTE program; or
  • A department-approved pathway assessment in the arts; or
  • A department-approved pathway assessment in a language other than English (LOTE); or
  • Earning the CDOS Commencement Credential; or
  • Earning the Seal of Civic Readiness

*In 2019, the New York State Board of Regents and Education Department launched the Graduation Measures Initiative to explore what a New York State diploma should signify to ensure educational excellence and equity for all students. Building on the Regents’ and Department’s shared commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and with a foundation rooted strongly in the Culturally Responsive-Sustaining Education Framework, the initiative was developed to: (1) create true equity in New York State’s public education systems, and (2) ensure that all New York students gain the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed in school and after they graduate. In November 2023, the Blue Ribbon Commission presented its recommendations for achieving these goals.

Additional information about the Graduation Measures initiative can be found on the Department’s Graduation Measures website
