Program of Studies

The Amesbury High School Program of Studies is a very important booklet as it contains all the course descriptions and graduation requirements.  It is especially useful in mapping out a student’s course of study as they work their way toward graduation. 

The Program of Studies and the Learning Expectations Rubric are always available. The Program of Studies for the next school year will be finalized in January.

The Program of Studies Google site can be found here.

During February and March, course request entry instructions and grade-specific elective reference sheets will be added below.
