| Rising 9th for next year DD keeps hearing that all of her electives will be gone if she gets into/accepts the Academies. Is this true? Can she take PE or any other classes over the summer to get more electives? Will foreign language classes be affected? |

| Yes people often take summer PE or a language or biology class. |

| This is true. Many of my students who did academies did online PE the summer before 10th grade. They also often lose a study hall block. |

| Yes this is correct, no electives or study hall unless they take summer school. On their "home" school day they only have 4 blocks and they have to take English, History, Foreign Language, and PE (through 10th grade.) Then in 11th they have to take Econ & Personal Finance. In 12th grade they would have one extra block. |
