Useful Information
Handbooks
Student Handbooks and the Management Plan and Student Code of Conduct are given to each student at the beginning of the school year. Both books offer valuable information and should be kept as a guide for parents and students.
Grade Level Classification
Grade level classification will be based upon the number of credits successfully completed. Grade level classifications require the following earned credits:
10th grade 5 credits
11th grade 10 credits
12th grade 15 credits
SAT, ACT, and PSAT/NMSQT
The SAT and ACT college entrance exams are administered on several dates during the year. The PSAT/NMSQT is a preliminary test for the SAT, but it is also the test by which 11th grade students enter competition for National Merit Scholarships. Sophomore students are encouraged to discuss this test with their counselors at the beginning of the sophomore year in order to take it for practice. Information regarding these tests may be obtained from the counselors.
