CMCSS Parent Academic Resources - Community Learning Series

Community Learning Series

Families can help their students prepare for high school and their future through the Community Learning Series. These five courses will walk through critical information for students to feel comfortable and successful as they move through their academic journey.

Graduation Requirements

Learn about the number and types of credits students must earn in order to receive a high school diploma in Tennessee.

Focused Elective Groups

In the Graduation Requirements segment, you learned that a student must earn 22 credits to graduate from high school in the state of TN. Three credits must be in a focused elective group (FEG). Find out what FEGs are available for CMCSS students.

Career and Technical Education and Academies of CMCSS

Students may choose Career and Technical Education (CTE) as their Focused Elective Group (FEG). In CMCSS, students have the choice between traditional CTE FEGs and applying to an Academy. Learn the similarities and differences of these two types of career and technical education pathways in this lesson.

Ready Graduate Indicators

The vision of CMCSS is that all students graduate college and career ready. But how will we know if students are “ready” when they cross the stage at graduation?

Know Your Numbers

Many numbers will factor into your child’s high school experience and the type of diploma they will receive. These numbers will also influence a student’s options for post-secondary enrollment and job attainment after high school.
