Disneyland

April 3, 2009

Students will have to maintain a 2.0 GPA and will have a grade check prior to the Disneyland trip. If a student has a "F" in any of their classes they will not be able to go on the trip. A "behavior check" will go around to all teachers in the month of March as well.

Bottom line:

DO YOUR HOMEWORK/CLASSWORK
Go to tutoring
Study for your test and quizzes
Behave in class
Mind your manners

e Language Other than English – 2 years required, 3 years recommendedTwo years of the same language other than English. Courses should emphasize speaking and understanding, and include instruction in grammar, vocabulary, reading, composition and culture.
