Course Selection- Rigor

❖ Know yourself- play to your strengths ❖ You do not win a prize for having the hardest schedule ❖ It’s ok to not take any Honors/AP/PSEO/CIS courses-that does not mean you are not smart ❖ It’s ok to only take 1 or 2 Honors/AP/PSEO/CIS courses ❖ Sometimes students add too much PRESSURE to themselves ❖ Find the RIGHT BALANCE for you- trust us!
