Freshman Year Preparation

Although college is still four years away, you can begin planning now.  Hopefully being prepared will help your college search process run smoothly,

Plan on:

• Taking college preparatory courses.  Each year, take progressively more challenging classes to help you prepare for the rigors of college academics.
• Having a course schedule that includes 4 years of English and math, 3 to 4 years of natural science, 2 to 4 years of social science and foreign language by graduation.
• Getting involved with extracurricular activities and try to strike a balance between your school work, activities and time with family and friends.
• Maintaining good grades and attendance.  Get into the habit of setting aside study time each day for homework and reading.
