High School Transition Class

What is High School Transition (formerly Freshman Focus)?

High School Transition is a class designed to help students transition from middle school to high school.  It is built into their schedule as an elective course.  During this time, students explore how to build stronger study habits, have content specific review time, develop organizational skills, conference with their teachers about their grades and behavior, keep track of up coming assignments, work on assignments, and develop a greater sense of the 21st century learning skills. 

Will this class count as a grade?

Yes! Don't let assignments slip by without turning them in.  This course is a credit bearing course and will factor into your GPA.

If I am concerned about my student's grades, can I contact the High School Transition teacher?

Absolutely! If you are concerned about  grades in other classes, the teacher for that class needs to be contacted first.  However, if you are concerned your student may not be using their time wisely in High School Transition to study for  other courses, please feel free to contact the HST teacher.
