Board approves Troy High School 2026–27 plans; adds Calculus 3, expands ACT access, discontinues Latin

The Troy School District board approved Troy High School’s 2026–27 plans for learning and heard curriculum highlights from district staff.

Unidentified district curriculum staff presented changes the board and staff said are intended to improve course access and clarity. Staff said school fees will be listed in the plans for learning so families see course-associated costs earlier. The board approved adding a Calculus 3 college-level course so students who previously had to leave campus to take advanced calculus can now enroll at Troy High. A staff presenter also said the district will offer the national ACT during the school day at a reduced price to increase student access.

The presenter noted Latin will be discontinued following the retirement of a staff member (Missus Lemke) and that Spanish and American Sign Language sections would be used to absorb students who had taken Latin. Board members discussed timing, course progression (algebra–geometry–algebra 2–precalculus), and the district's plan to monitor enrollment and adjust as needed.

The board approved the plans by roll-call vote. Staff said minor updates to the document may follow as schedules and course offerings are finalized.

Next steps: staff will implement the scheduling changes and report enrollment metrics as the year begins.
