After reading some questions, I am concerned about which high school credits will transfer.  I was told during the pre-enrollment inquiry on the phone that the names/titles of the classes do not need to match.   However, I know understand that my daughter's Physical Science class from 9th grade will not meet the science requirement for an honors diploma because it is not one of the science's on the requirements list.  Is that accurate and, if so, will it still transfer as an elective?   Similarly, her geometry and algebra I classes were called Integrated Math 1 and 2.  I am now worried that she will also not get credit for these since the names are different.
