typically focuses on a combination of core subjects and elective courses. Here's a

varying levels of complexity depending on the grade level.

also include earth science, environmental science, or integrated science courses.

Social Studies: This may encompass history, geography, economics, civics, and
sociology, providing a broad understanding of social and historical contexts.

Physical Education (PE): PE classes focus on physical fitness, sports, and healthy

Elective Courses:

The availability of elective courses can vary widely. Students often have the

consult with your school's guidance counselor or educational authorities to get
detailed information about the curriculum and available courses in your specific
