A Few Final Thoughts… Watch grades closely – block
schedule has a different pace. It is easy to get behind and hard to catch up!
Communication is EXTREMELY important. Check the school website regularly, contact the school if you have questions or concerns, watch for newsletters.www.sectionlions.com
![Page 16: School Website m m.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062306/5a4d1b8a7f8b9ab0599be3ad/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
HIGH SCHOOL SHOULD BE HARD!!!!
Every student should have to work hard – from the strongest student academically to the weakest. If a student is making “A’s” without working there is a problem. If students rarely do work outside of school they will not be prepared for the post-high school world. To have successful high school careers, students should avoid the “that’s good enough” philosophy and demand the very best from themselves!
