1. We play a “###’s” game, Not a “letters” game
La Paloma High School
We play a “###’s” game,
Not a “letters” game

2. Here is how it works at La Paloma
Each student should earn at least credits in each class.
5 classes = 15 Credits/quarter.
Here is the magic part… The magic ### of credits you can settle for is credits/quarter.

3. Magic ### is 12…What? High school should take 4 years
La Paloma requires 190 credits
12 credits x 4 quarter = credits/year
48 credits x 4 years = Credits = diploma
So if I exceed 12 credits per quarter I will reach my goal early
If I earn less then 12 credits I am actually falling more behind.

4. So now you see… A’s B’s and an occasional C may look good to me,
But the ### of credits I earn are the true reality
Don’t let them fall short,
Count the credits in their report!
