Curriculum [edit]
The curriculum and student handbooks of the three high schools in the Dublin City School District are being revised in order to conform with the International Baccalaureate degree program.[2] These changes include recognizing all students with a GPA of 4.1 or above to receive a valedictorian status; a shift from a seven period day to an eight period day; and a change from year long 1.0 credit courses to semester 0.5 credit courses.[2] Students will now receive 0.5 credits for each semester, instead of 1.0 credit at the end of the year.[2]
