Middle School grades matter! We use the information for course placement.
In high school, you create a permanent transcript. These grades will help determine your future options.
Give careful attention to your choices now so you can get the classes you want and need. We do very few schedule changes in the Fall.
Select classes based on:
Graduation requirements
Stretch classes, try something new and challenge yourself! Consider an Honors or AP class.
Planning for YOUR future.
Please do not select classes based on what your friends are taking. This is YOUR high school experience! 
