What is a coherent sequence?
A “coherent sequence of courses” means an educational plan made up of developmentally appropriate courses suited for a given career objective or goal. This plan builds upon the academic core components and includes school-based learning and work-based learning experiences leading to both academic and occupational competencies. Note: Under the Recommended High School Program, a student must demonstrate proficiency equivalent to 3 1/2 credits in a coherent sequence of two or more courses for career and technology preparation, and must meet recommended high school program criteria in English language arts, mathematics, science, social studies, languages other than English, health, fine arts, and technology applications.
