Curriculum Offerings / Requirements / Regulations
As you consider your program of studies for the next school year, you should give thoughtful consideration to your selection of subjects. Your interests, abilities and long-range goals are important factors to be considered in the decisions you make regarding the selection of courses each year.
It is very important that you select classes which fit your future plans. Before making a final decision, discuss your choices with your parents, counselor and teachers. Too often students find that they have missed taking subjects they need to prepare themselves for their chosen vocation. Most colleges, universities, and technical colleges have specific entrance requirements. Therefore, you would do well to plan your program with a great deal of care and with an eye to the future. Although parents, teachers and counselors assist you, ultimately scheduling of classes is your responsibility, so choose wisely.
