There are very few true "elective" course at Meeker High School.  Almost every course fits into a specific category (Fine Arts, Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies, Career & Technical Education etc.).

When a student "meets" the graduation requirement in one area, but chooses to take more classes in that area, their credits are "rolled over" as electives, thus meeting the "elective" requirement for graduation.
