NP. If four years of English are already on his actual transcript, he is fine.

Of course you have to take four years of English.

I've never heard of this. Do you live in another region of the country?

I've never heard of taking high school English in middle school. It seems like a very bad idea, because even the most advanced/gifted middle schooler still doesn't have the emotional maturity to tackle high school level themes and subjects.

Summer school dual enrollment

Journalism and creative writing will challenge him in new ways. he should absolutely take one or the other.

Most HS has a 4 year english requirement. If he's already maxed out of the curriculum, he may need to do journalism or creative. It's fine if they're not AP. Not everything has to be AP.

It seems very odd not to take any English class senior year. If there are no AP English classes left to take then he won't be penalized for taking a non-AP English.

Could he do an independent study with a teacher and write a senior thesis?

We needs to take a class where he is required to read and write. It could be a history seminar course or other advanced course in a different department, but he shouldn't take a year off from having to write papers.

Aren't 4 years of English a graduation requirement?

Senior with a dilemma of what to take next yr:

My son took a couple yrs of high school English in middle school. He started freshman year in 11 Honors, took AP Eng lang sophomore yr and AP Eng lit junior yr. He is wanting to pursue STEM field in college. Senior yr there are no more AP English classes available to him, he could take advanced journalism or creative but neither are AP level courses. He could do duel enrollment for college level English, but that cuts into his day leaving less time for other classes. He would rather take 2 math or 2 sciences. Since he has already taken the two AP English classes available, would it be looked down if he takes a less rigorous English class his senior yr?
