We play a “###’s” game, Not a “letters” game La Paloma High School We play a “###’s” game, Not a “letters” game

Here is how it works at La Paloma Each student should earn at least 3 credits in each class. 5 classes = 15 Credits/quarter. Here is the magic part… The magic ### of credits you can settle for is 12 credits/quarter.

Magic ### is 12…What? High school should take 4 years La Paloma requires 190 credits 12 credits x 4 quarter = 48 credits/year 48 credits x 4 years = 192 Credits = diploma So if I exceed 12 credits per quarter I will reach my goal early If I earn less then 12 credits I am actually falling more behind.

So now you see… A’s B’s and an occasional C may look good to me, But the ### of credits I earn are the true reality Don’t let them fall short, Count the credits in their report!
