This is a list of the classes the high school offers, the second semester kids were going to be choosing there classes to enroll in this week. Since we are not in class this is a good way for the students to choose which classes they want to take. We already went over it in class so they should have an idea of what they need to do. I will also attach the graduation requirements in another link. They will have 4 core classes and a choice of 2 electives. If they are trying to get into a university and have a 3.0 or higher GPA from the Junior High I suggest taking either Navajo 1 or Spanish 1 there freshmen year. If you have any questions about this please shoot me an email or a text using the Talking Points number I texted you from.
