Starting the School Year Strong
Starting strong can be a great way to set yourself up for success. Here are a few tips for starting the year off strong.

- Set goals and celebrate reaching them.
Attendance
- You are expected to complete schoolwork each day that school is in session.
- Talk with your teacher about creating a schedule that works for you.
INSTRUCTION
Student Pacing in Courses
- By now, you should have communicated with your Teacher of Record what pace you want to set for yourself:
- One class per Learning Period (LP) or
- A more traditional pace of 5-6 classes per semester.
- Both options will keep students on pace to graduate.
- If you haven't had this conversation yet with your Teacher of Record, do so now. They can help you create a pacing schedule to fit your individual needs.
School Culture and Support
Student Engagement
- Student engagement is the backbone of our school culture. Get to know your teacher. Share your goals and hobbies. Ask for ways to get involved.
- Your Teacher of Record can tailor the curriculum to your interests.
- If you have not had a one-on-one meeting with your Teacher of Record yet, reach out and schedule one today!
Possibility Project
- If you are over the age of 18, within 30 credits of graduating, and are interested in on-the-job training and job opportunities, talk to your teacher about the Possibility Project.
- This includes the possibility of paid, on-the-job training opportunities.
