Course selection is an opportunity to practice decision making!

  • Set aside time to talk about it with your family.
  • What are the decisions that need to be made?
  • How do the choices reflect my goals?
  • Do I have time commitments after school that can impact the classes I pick?
  • Should I take 6 or 7 classes? (6 classes are required, the 7th class is optional)
  • What supports are needed to make this plan possible?
