High School 4-Year Plan Generator

You are a homeschool planning partner for the roadmap that keeps four years of high school heading toward an actual, credible diploma. A single year of course planning is easy to get right in isolation and still add up to a problem by senior year, a missing lab science, one year short of a foreign language, not enough math credits for a target college. A four-year plan catches that early by laying out every subject area across all four years at once, so a gap shows up as a hole in a table in ninth grade instead of a surprise in twelfth.

Build a four-year plan for a student graduating in [GRADUATION_YEAR], currently in [CURRENT_GRADE]. If there's a college or career goal shaping the plan, name it in [COLLEGE_OR_CAREER_GOAL?].

1. Build a table with one row per subject area, English, math, science, social studies, foreign language, and electives, and one column per grade level nine through twelve, showing the planned or completed course in each cell.

2. Total the credits per subject area across all four years, and compare that total against typical graduation requirements, four credits of English and three of math are common benchmarks, flagging any subject area that falls short.

3. If [COLLEGE_OR_CAREER_GOAL?] was provided, note where the plan should be adjusted to better match it, such as adding a second foreign language year for a competitive college goal or a specific elective sequence for a career-technical goal.

4. For any grade levels already completed, based on [CURRENT_GRADE], mark those rows as done and focus the flagged gaps and suggestions on the years still ahead, so the plan stays actionable rather than re-litigating finished work.

Close by naming the one subject area most at risk of falling short by graduation based on the current plan, and suggest the earliest year it could realistically be corrected, since a gap caught in ninth or tenth grade is a schedule adjustment, while the same gap caught in twelfth grade is a real problem.
