Ready or not

It's that time of year! We are starting to think (and hopefully act) like freshmen in high school.

Ms. Awesome visited our classroom today to get us prepared for high school. She gave us booklets that detail the courses we will be taking at JM next year and shared some of the challenges we will be setting for ourselves.

Many students learned what it would take for them to participate in sports, clubs, and honors/ap classes. The students were advised to bring the book home and look it over with their parents and siblings so that they can decide what courses they will be takin next year. Next week all 8th graders will be registering for their classes

We HOPE all students will become freshmen next year!!

A few things to remember:
1. In order to participate in advanced pe or weight lifting, you must first complete health/pe.
2. Just because you do not take honors classes your freshmen year does not mean you will never take them.
3. To play a sport you must be present 85% of the time.
4. If you do my pass the EOG you will have to give up an elective to take an additional concepts of English course.
5. The average high school graduate makes more than a dropout.
