1.  Global I Pre-Test
2.  Advice for the High School
  • Academics become harder EVERY year.  Are you prepared to rise to the occasion?  
  • Middle School is officially over.  Teams are gone, homebase is gone, “Houses” are gone, and for the first time - failing actually MEANS something.  Are you going to sink or swim?
  • 9th Grade is the first day of the rest of your life.  It’ll shape a high school transcript which will determine what you will do when you graduate high school.  What are you going to do with YOUR first day?  
HW - Enjoy the summer!  Best of luck!!
