Course Selection & Scheduling
Choosing appropriate courses should be a reflective process. It requires students to think about their strengths and weaknesses, what has worked and hasn’t worked, and what goals they wish to achieve in the next year. We have found it helpful for students to go through this exercise with their parents/guardians before the conversation of “Which courses should I take?” occurs. The amount of work a student is ready to commit to should be a healthy complement to any extra-curricular activities they want to maintain. Further, we believe students should have down time to spend with their family, and friends, and to independently engage in hobbies and socializing. Over-scheduling, or stretching yourself too thin, puts your ability to have a positive and successful year at risk. Students should have a balance in their life between school, co-curricular activities, family, and friends. The courses you choose can greatly support this balance.
