In February 2023, 8th grade students in our district were given a self-reflection form (2022 version) to help them determine if the advanced course options of English 9 Advanced and/or AP Environmental Science are the right fit for them as they registered for 9th grade.
Here is a brief slide show that re-caps those options and contains the self-reflection form: Advanced Options Self-Reflection
Students who tend to be most successful in these courses show skills in these areas:
strong time-management
advocacy skills
commitment to collaboration and dialogue
high-interest in the content area
See how these advanced options compare to their grade-level counterparts:
