===Curriculum===
Lockport High School offers more than 150 different courses in English, Social Studies, Mathematics, Science, Languages Other Than English, Art, Music, Family & Consumer Science, Health, Business, Technology, and Physical Education. Technical career courses are available through Orleans-Niagara Board of Cooperative Education ([[BOCES]]). The school focuses on graduating all students with the minimum of a [[Regents Examinations#Regular Regents Diploma|Regents Diploma]], but some may also graduate with a less advanced local diploma. The [[Regents Examinations#Regents Diploma with Advanced Designation|Regents Diploma with Advanced Designation]] may be achieved with extended studies in a foreign language.

Though the curriculum is developed and sanctioned by the [[New York State Department of Education]], and classes are developed to prepare students to achieve success on the required [[Regents Examinations]], most core courses offer one or two components that explore more advanced topics. The school not only offers standard level Regents courses (Academic level), but also offers more advanced [[Advanced Placement]] (AP), College-credit (College), and Honors (H) courses. The criteria used in placing students in the instructional levels are classroom performance, teacher and counselor recommendations, standardized test scores, and individual student preferences. Advanced students may begin earning high school credits in middle school through an accelerated program in mathematics and/ or foreign language.

The school uses a 100 [[Grade point average#United States|grade point]] scale, as opposed to the much more common 4.0 scale. The rank in class is established by placing students in descending order from highest to lowest according to their weighted grade point average. The weighted grade point average is calculated with [[Advanced Placement]] (AP) courses and College Level courses weighted at 1.1 and Honors Level courses weighted at 1.05.
