High School

[bunnylover78642]

I am worried about high school... I am takingBand, Ag classes (animals), wildlife managment, spanish 2, geometreyAdvanced, science ICS, English PreAB. And I am only in the 9th gradenext year. I am worried about getting all my credits, passing with goodgrades, and being able to keep up. I am a good student As-B grades... Ican't wait for AG classes. Those are Aggie classes, the longhorns makefun of people in that class. You have to have 6 credits to graduate.Just posting worries, sorry.

Wow! :shock:We need 100 credits to graduate!

 

[MyBunnyLovesMe]

In Ontario you need 36 I believe to graduate...or...32? I can't remember...but I got them all anyway... lol.

No need to worry.

I am in High School right now. Currently taking Geometry, EnvironmentalScience, World History (which is actually a senior class, i'm ajunior), Ceramics, English 3, Yearbook, Capstone, and DesktopPublishing 2. All are actually mainly senior classes, and I am not byfar the smartest person in the world, but they are not too bad. Peoplemake High School seem alot worse than it actually is.

As far as credits, as long as you take all the required classes andpass them, you shouldn't need to even worry about having enough. Theschool builds in some leway on it. Unforntunantly since I moved, I lostseveral credits in the transfer and have to take summer school thissummer to get enough math credits to graduate next year.

Just make sure you study. If you haveproblems, go to the teacher for help. Many high schools havewhat is called "bonus hour" where the teachers stay after and helpthose who need it.

My son is going to be a freshman next year. Depending upon what diplomathey want they have to schedule their classes and get the credits forthe diploma. They can get a GED or a HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA orsomething else and then the HONORS DIPLOMA. My son is goingfor that one. He's taking Latin and honors english andgeometry and all sorts of stuff.

The thing is, it's very hard to study and get everything donesometimes, but in the end, you've got a whole lifetime ahead of youwith a good education that you can use to get a good job.

Are you going to college?

[MyBunnyLovesMe]

Do you guys have those tests and community hours?

I didn't have to do it as I was the older class style thingie, butthese days in Ontario, you can't graduate unless you pass this literacytest and have 40 or more community hours.

Or school requires 28 credits to graduate, 6 isjust the 9th grade. Each classis either 1 credit or .5credit. I am planning on going to college and becoming a vet. I loveschool and really can't wait to finish school either though.

 

[Bo B Bunny]

Veterinary school can be very hard to get into. Even harder than medical school some people say.

Take a lot of science classes.... and Latin wouldn't hurt. All the latin roots are important in medicine.

Good luck

 

[Cinnabun]

my school wont let us take Latin! and im sad! i wanna take that! instead of one term of French! :X French is hard.. LOL

 

[Bo B Bunny]

Eww I hated french!

In Indiana the kids have to pass an exam (ISTEP) before they can graduate. No service hours are needed tho.
