9th Grade Checklist

  • Meet your Counselor - The counseling team is here to help you navigate your next 4 years, so it will be great to make a connection. Graduation requirements, scholarships, college applications, summer enrichment, credit recovery, scheduling, letters of recommendation and much more goes through the counseling department, so stop by and say hello!

  • Get Involved - Check out what EHS has to offer by getting involved in a sport, club or after-school activities. You could also consider volunteer work or check out MSCR. Extra-curricular activities are a great way to find out more about yourself and what you like to do and could eventually lead to a career direction! Colleges and employers also love to see these activities on your resume, so the sooner you start the more you will be able to explore!

  • Focus on your grades - Start your high school career off on the right foot! According to research, your grades are one of the most important factors in your high school success. Developing good study habits, asking for help when you need it and trying hard on all of your assignments should be your top priority. EHS staff are here to help you, so don't hesitate to ask if you need to!

  • Show Up - Attendance is an extremely important factor in determining your academic success. Statistics show that good attendance results in being on track at the end of the year, while poor attendance results in a loss of academic credits. So, it will be imperative to show up to school every day and go to class!
