Freshman transition course
Some courses have prerequisites

Failed courses may require summer school or other credit recovery
GPA is cumulative

13. Schedule Changes
Class changes (dropping) will only be made if teachers, counselors or administrators believe that the placement is incorrect

There are a lot of great choices
CHOOSE YOUR COURSES CAREFULLY
