A transcript reflects: ◦ All the classes you have taken in high school; ◦ The letter grade you received in each class; ◦ Any credit you received for each class; ◦ Your grade point average (GPA); ◦ Number of credits attempted; ◦ Number of credits earned. When reviewing your transcript…if you notice something you believe is an error please let me know! I have some handwritten notes of things that need to be fixed. They will be fixed before you receive it next.

Grade Level / Semester Summary Credit Summary Standardized Test Summary

To be considered a junior for the 2013 – 2014 school year, a student must have accrued a minimum of 22 credits prior to the start of the school year. ◦ Students with less than 22 credits will be: Reclassified as sophomores; Will not be eligible for Junior level classes –including TA spots; Be assigned a new counselor. This is non-negotiable
10
Based upon information from your transcript, earned credits are marked on a credit evaluation sheet.
11
A listed credit marked with check mark or the name of the class has already been earned. I did not mark the courses you are currently in. You can mark those with a circle if you would like. Anything left unmarked is a credit still needed.
12
Table of Contents – Look at all the info! Many, many name changes- READ THE BOOK!! Page 5! Online Registration info. Course Change info. Page 6 Course Change. Dual Credit Courses pages 10-14 New course! Philosophy. DC Sociology offered this year. Psych will be back next year.
13
Required ◦ American Literature ◦ US History 2 ◦ Economics Highly Recommended ◦ Math ◦ Science Then Prioritize: Classes needed to graduate; Classes needed for college admissions; Classes to further your knowledge / skills for post-high school goals; Wants
14
Some of you are looking at Junior year as the year without math; however, I would encourage you to keep going! Some of you don’t have the wiggle room to take a year off- are you missing a semester of algebra or geometry? You can always retake a class to improve your grade or GPA. Push yourself! Colleges love RIGOR!!!!
15
Next year you will take the SAT and taking math and chemistry will have you on the right track to have great scores for the ACT or SAT!!! Just imagine how much you forget over a weekend or the summer. Do you want to take your SAT with a year off of math? Pathways to success are important. Four years of math and science are just as important as four years of English.
16
As you select courses be sure you pay attention to: ◦ Grade level requirements; ◦ Course length; ◦ Pre-requisites; ◦ Instructor permission. Get those signatures!!!!!!
