Secondary News March

Wow, as we approach April we are looking at the last two full months of school left in the 2009-2010! What a whirlwind! Seniors are off to Europe, students are enjoying activities like Musicale, Easter break, Science camp, SAT tests, Catalina, Math Olympics, the Warrior Band at Knott’s Berry Farm, Art to Disneyland, Yearbook to Knott’s Berry Farm as well, and the list continues. Hold on to your hats and watch those calendars!

Hopefully, Seniors are making final decisions for next year. These are exciting times!
Juniors should be looking at taking the college entrance SAT’s at least once before this school year is over. Students can register by going to http://www.collegeboard.com/. Juniors please remember to start planning summer trips to visit colleges of interest.

Next year’s schedule will soon be out, and I will then be meeting with each of the students to discuss their future plans and making sure they are on track for graduation and college entrance.

As just a reminder here are the graduation requirements for our high school:

GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS

BIBLE Four (4) years or every semester in attendance at AVCS
ENGLISH Four (4) years
SOCIAL STUDIES Four (4) years

MATHEMATICS Three (3) years (Plus one additional year recommended)

SCIENCE Three (3) years (Plus one additional year recommended)

FOREIGN LANGUAGE Two (2) years
PHYSICAL EDUCATION Two (2) years - Each school team sport counts for ½ year
FINE ARTS One (1) year - Art, Choir, Drama

Students must have 270 credits to graduate.

Our standards for graduation are all based on the entrance expectations of the colleges, especially the University of California (UC) system.

As we fly through the end of this school year with much anticipation and excitement for next year, please feel free to drop in if you have any questions or would like to be sure that your high school student is on track.

Sincerely, Jean Huff
