IMPORTANT NOTE: When thinking about next year's schedule, keep in mind balance. As a student, you are often pulled in many directions and find that you must balance academics, numerous (and sometimes competing) extracurricular commitments, family and work obligations, available time, stress and personal joy of learning in life. We want all students to select a course schedule that will provide them with a level of challenge to stretch themselves and pursue individual interests. We do not want schedule choices to harm your quality of life or your ability to grow as a healthy (emotionally, mentally, physically, and socially) teenager.
