Students planning to attend college should realize that the following criteria are used to determine your admission status:

• Course work taken and its level of difficulty
• Standardized tests scores
• GPA (Grade point average for 6 semesters)
• Counselor/teacher letters
• Extra-curricular activities (in and out of school)
• Leadership roles

Sequencing Charts:

The following course sequencing charts have been developed to assist you in making informed decisions for your course selections:

Homework Rating Scale:

The homework rating scale should be used as a "general" indicator of the amount of work a student is expected to complete outside of the classroom. The rating scale does not indicate the amount of rigor in a particular course. Remember, a course may be rigorous without requiring much homework and vice versa.

	Majority of work is done in class. Out-of-class work is limited to long-term assignments.
	Some work is completed in class and homework is limited.  Out-of-class work includes long-term projects and papers.
	Frequent homework is expected.  Long-term assignments and papers are given.
	Homework is assigned for every class.  Long-term assignments and papers are frequent.

 

 

Enjoy the fair.
