1 2018-2019 Frenchtown High School Registration
Sophomores registering for Junior level courses

2 Importance of Registration
Prepare students for future goals. Student registration dictates what classes are offered and when they are scheduled. You will not have an opportunity to make changes to your schedule. “I just filled in classes…” Careful planning allows students to have as many doors open in the future as possible. Computer optimizes schedule to accommodate student requests. When students change requests or “just fill it out” we create a schedule difficult on students and teachers.

14 Scholarship Considerations
* Get involved: The more activities you are involved in, makes you a more rounded student. Scholarship committees look for not only good grades but someone who participated in various activities. * Community Service: Many national scholarships are based on community service activities that benefited the student’s community. This is a great way to develop the important leadership skills that scholarship committees look for. * Maintain Good Grades: You do not have to be a 4.0 student but you should still try your hardest to maintain a good GPA. Many scholarships require a GPA over 3.4 (UM Entering Student Scholarships) and a SAT/ACT at a certain level. Start Early: Find out about scholarship requirements early so you are prepared.
