1 vs. What are the key differences and how do I know which one(s) my child should sign up for? Class of 2022
2 HONORS COURSES The number of honors courses a student is recommended for may be different than the number of honors courses a student should take. When selecting how many honors courses to enroll in, consider all time commitments, sports and band practice each evening and activities outside of school. At the high school, students are not allowed to try a course and then change to a lower level course Please consider that the 9 th graders who take all honors in core areas Freshman year are usually the same kids who take five or more AP courses Senior year.
3 REGULAR VS. HONORS Slower Pacing Less Homework More Teacher Support Faster Pacing More Independent Work Tougher Assessments More Teacher as Coach More Student in Control of Own Learning Greater Work Ethic Needed For a Student Who Wants to be Challenged in This Subject
4 WEIGHTED GRADE COURSES What does weighted grade mean? The course is of considerable difficulty and will greatly challenge students who may have easily succeeded in MS Challenge Courses. EARNING an A is difficult but will result in a 5.0 GPA for that course on a 4.0 scale. EARNING a B will result in earning a 4.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale. Note: Many colleges ask students to submit their unweighted GPA. Not all honors courses are weighted grade courses. Weighted Grade: ALAR/P I (Language Arts), Geometry and History are currently the only CORE WG courses for 9 th graders. Biology & Language Arts 9, though both rigorous courses that will prepare your child well, are not weighted grade.
