SFUSD adopted a policy that aligns high school graduation and the A-G requirements. To ensure that all students take college preparatory courses and have the option of applying to a wide range of colleges and universities, students must meet these requirements with a D or better in order to earn a high school diploma. To be UC/CSU eligible, students must complete these courses with a C or better.
230 credits must be completed in order to earn a high school diploma.
A-G coursework (150 credits)
Additional required classes (30 credits); 1 semester of college/career, 1 semester of health education, and 2 years of PE
Electives (50 credits, 10 of which must be from the A-G categories)
Below are charts about A-G course requirements in high school available in English and Spanish. More information on SFUSD High School graduation requirements can be found here.

Course Matrix identifies individual course offerings at each high school as well as special education programming, Career and Technical Education Pathways, Newcomer Pathways, athletics, and advanced placement and honors courses.
