  7. WHICH PROGRAM? • Students who started the 2004 Dogwood in high school may want to complete it if they have only a few subjects left to do. • The Adult Dogwood will satisfy the requirements for most colleges. Please check with your college program advisor first. COURSE SELECTION Many of our adult students complete the Adult Dogwood using the following courses: • Communications 12 • Essentials of Math 11 • CAPPA 12 • Food Studies 12 or Data Management 12 • Family Studies 12 or Entrepreneurship 12 We want you to be successful, so advise you to take only 1 (maybe 2) courses at a time. You may want to start with Planning 12 – quick and easy to complete which gives you an immediate sense of success and provides the advisor with important information to help with your graduation plan.

  8. COMMUNICATION Communicate with your Academic Advisor for any overall course scheduling concerns or program concerns. Communicate regularly with your subject teachers for subject specific questions.
