[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So this year he has two classes he really likes and participates a good amount - Forensic Science and AP Psych but he gets new teachers in both classes at the semester.

FWIW - he’s and A/B student and is not targeting highly selective schools.[/quote]

AP Psych is one semester? Sounds like these are great classes for recs. Are all classes at this school one semester only? If so, all kids are in the same boat and teachers will be used to it. [/quote]

Both classes are for the full year but they switch teachers at the semester. [/quote]

Why do they switch teachers?[/quote]

OP- are you in mcps? My kid had a similar issue where mcps switches teachers at the the semester.  He ended up picking a couple teachers for classes where he got his best grade and/or might have participated more because he liked the content. Focus on the brag sheet and put in the details that you mentioned about him helping others- especially if you are targeting jesuit or other schools with a community commitment focus. The teachers have so many to do that they rely heavily on the brag sheet.[/quote]
