Option II for Athletics
Application Form
Forms
Overview
The New Jersey Department of Education (NJDOE) recognizes and acknowledges that all students will not achieve the New Jersey Student Learning Standards (NJSLA) in the same manner and/or with the same level of success. The Holmdel School District is permitted to allow students with individualized learning opportunities outside of the traditional classroom that are stimulating and challenging and that enable students to meet or exceed the New Jersey Student Learning Standards. This is commonly referred to as Option II.
Students are permitted to earn credit toward graduation through Option II experiences. Participation in Option II is predicated on the application process through which students seek approval. Attainment of credit toward graduation is based on the successful completion of documentation that verify student achievement in meeting or exceeding the NJSLA at the high school level.
Students planning to pursue activities for credit at Holmdel High School are required to submit a completed application to the Principal’s Option II Review Committee. This committee is comprised of the High School Principal, Assistant Principal of Guidance, School Counselor and Supervisors and Teachers, as needed. The Principal’s Option II Review Committee will review each application to determine eligibility and grant approval. Each student’s application will be reviewed on its own merit.
