9th Grade Timeline

Follow these steps for success your 9th grade year: 

• Memorize graduation requirements - you need 27 credits to graduate. Freshman year counts! 

• Become familiar with the entrance requirements for 4-Year colleges, technical colleges, apprenticeships, military, or workforce opportunities. 

• GET INVOLVED! Keep track of extra curricular activities, volunteer hours and any awards or honors you receive this year. 

• Set up 1 or two job shadowing opportunities - this is a great year to explore.

• Plan ahead and talk to your counselor when it comes time to pick your courses for Sophomore year. Choose classes that will help YOU reach YOUR future goals.  

• IF there are classes you do not pass for first or second semester, it is extremely important you make an appointment with your counselor to discuss a plan for making up that credit!
