Course Guide

We believe that educational planning and the selection of classes is one of the most important parts of your student’s high school experience, and we hope you will take an active part in the process.
 
The Course Guide contains information on graduation requirements, Common Core State Standards, NCAA Clearinghouse requirements, and every course offered at Mundelein High School.  It lists the following for each course:  prerequisites, grade level criteria, number of terms, number of credits, and the course description. In addition, Mundelein High School frames course selection in the context of Programs of Study. Please take time to review and discuss the Programs of Study with your son/daughter, so that our students choose courses that align with their post-secondary plans.
 
Each student will receive a Course Selection Worksheet; this worksheet lists every course offered next year for each grade level, along with the number of terms the course meets.  Next to the department heading is a corresponding page number in the Course Guide.  Freshmen, sophomores, and juniors may request up to 7 periods for the year.
 
Beginning in November, counselors will schedule individual appointments with each student.  During the appointments, counselors will review graduation requirements, record course selections, and discuss post-high school plans.
             
Please contact our Guidance Department at 847-949-2200 if you have any questions.  We look forward to working closely with you and your students to plan for an exciting and challenging 2024-2025 school year.
 
Best Regards,
 
Dr. Alexandria Rios Taylor, Principal
