12. Closing Thoughts to Consider
What do they want to do after high school and what classes can they take now to help get them there?
Choose courses that highlight their natural strengths and interests
Make sure there is a balance between school commitments and extra-curricular activities
Do not schedule them for what you think they can do, but for what they have done in the past
Or based on what other siblings/friends have done
