Can a high school student fit the PLTW courses into his/her schedule?
Yes. The specific number of periods in the day in a particular school and the arrangement of those periods will influence the way these courses can be scheduled. For example, in a typical school with an 8 period instructional day + lunch, the following plan would work.
Grade 9 |
Grade 10 |
