Hortonville High School annually publishes a Course Listing booklet describing all courses and current graduation requirements.
The responsibility for completing all graduation requirements at the proper times rests with each of our students. While faculty and counselors will assist students in planning their program, they are not expected to relieve the students of their responsibility.
