Fall and Spring
- Start having more strategic conversations about your dreams and career goals. Your plans may change but it’s always good to explore.
- If you are bored in class and/or getting A’s and B’s with no problem, consider taking some advanced or honors level classes. This will prepare you for advanced classes in high school.
- If your plan is to go in a heavy math or science field, you should take Algebra I in the 7th or 8th grade in order to take Calculus and Physics by senior year.
- Get a library card if you don’t have one and brush up on your reading.
- Get involved in extra-curricular activities. This will allow you to make new friends, discover new interests and have something positive and productive to do after school.
- Do some volunteer work or work a summer camp. Get involved at your local YMCA.
- Talk to your parents about getting involved in PTA
Summer
If there is a summer reading requirement, make sure all is completed. The schools that require them make it a major assignment for the first quarter/trimester of school. Not doing well can dramatically affect the final grade.
