    ACTION PLAN for SOPHOMORES

    Sophomores should work with their advisors, parents, teachers, and counselors and follow the suggestions below for a successful sophomore year:

    • Take challenging classes like Advanced and AP courses.
    • Study hard and get high grades.
    • Continue working with your advisor to develop your 4-year plan for graduation.
    • All sophomores will take the PSAT for free in October.  The PSAT is a practice college entrance exam that provides personalized feedback to help you better prepare for the SAT that you will need to take during junior/senior year.
    • You will take the End of Course test this year in Geometry.
    • Excellent attendance is a must!
    • Build a support team: parents, teachers, counselors, coaches, and advisors.
    • Take advantage of help available: communicate with your teachers, attend after-school tutoring (even if it's not required!).
    • Get involved-- join sports, clubs, and do community service
    • READ! Read as much as possible in your spare time: magazines, newspapers, novels, etc.
    • Begin to think about your own abilities, interests, and values.
    • Make an appointment to meet and get to know your counselor.
    • DON'T LET YOU FRIENDS BRING YOU DOWN! Avoid the temptation to leave academics behind. We want to see you graduate in 3 years!
