Provides students an
entrance into the field of
learning.
Reinforces the initial skills,
vocabulary, and allows to
students a focused

IGP with A-G Requirements
A-G Requirements

a l History/Social Science – 2 years required

b l English – 4 years required

c l Mathematics – 3 years required, 4 years recommended

d l Laboratory Science – 2 years required, 3 years recommended

e l Language Other than English – 2 years required, 3 years recommended

f l Visual and Performing Arts (VPA) – 1 year required

g l College-Preparatory Electives – 1 year required
Two years of history/social science, including one year of world history, cultures and geography; and one year
of U.S. history or one-half year of U.S. history and one-half year of civics or American government.
Four years of college-preparatory English that include frequent and regular writing, and reading of classic and
modern literature. No more than one year of ESL-type courses can be used to meet this requirement.
Three years of college-preparatory mathematics that include the topics covered in elementary and advanced
algebra and two- and three-dimensional geometry. Approved integrated math courses may be used to fulfill
part or all of this requirement, as may math courses taken in the seventh and eighth grades that your high
school accepts as equivalent to its own math courses.
Two years of laboratory science providing fundamental knowledge in at least two of these three foundational
subjects: biology, chemistry and physics. Advanced laboratory science classes that have biology, chemistry or
physics as prerequisites and offer substantial additional material may be used to fulfill this requirement, as
may the final two years of an approved three-year integrated science program that provides rigorous coverage
of at least two of the three foundational subjects.
Two years of the same language other than English. Courses should emphasize speaking and understanding,
and include instruction in grammar, vocabulary, reading, composition and culture. Courses in languages other
than English taken in the seventh and eighth grades may be used to fulfill part of this requirement if your high
school accepts them as equivalent to its own courses.
A single yearlong approved arts course from a single VPA discipline: dance, drama/theater, music or visual art.
One year (two semesters), in addition to those required in "a-f" above, chosen from the following areas: visual
and performing arts (non-introductory level courses), history, social science, English, advanced mathematics,
laboratory science and language other than English (a third year in the language used for the "e" requirement
or two years of another language).
