Graduation from a Pueblo City Schools high school requires a
completion of a minimum of twenty-four credits. All prescribed requirements set
forth by the State of Colorado Department of Education and Pueblo City Schools
Board of Education must be completed prior to the student participating in a
graduation exercise. Graduation requirements are designed to give each student a well-balanced and comprehensive high school education. Classes, when carefully selected, will help students explore their own interests and develop their abilities. In planning a course of study, students should consider the following: 1. Before selecting a course, students should read the course description to be sure it fits their needs, interests, and abilities and supports their plans after high school. 2. College entrance requirements and/or career and technical plans for the future should be considered in selecting courses.
