Scope and Sequence
-
Students starting in Grade 9 enter the virtual early college high school as a Year 1A or Year 1B student depending on accelerated pathways. The virtual early college high school personalizes pathways designed to reflect the interest and needs of the students. Enrichment opportunities are also included for students.
Students at other grade levels will receive a transcript review and will be eligible to begin the program at the needed instructional entry point.
Students have the potential to earn an advanced NY State diploma as well as an associate degree from Cayuga Community College by the end of Year 4/Grade 12.
Two Early College High School Pathways have been designed for students to receive a two-year degree.
Note: Students are not limited to the two pathways. Students/families, school counselor and college advising staff will work closely to personalize educational pathways both degree and non-degree. Students do not need to complete the college associate degree program in SYNERGY. The potential of the degree is available to students. All students leave SYNERGY with the requirements needed for a NY State diploma.

Upon transcript review, students enter either Pathway A or Pathway B depending upon previous course work.
