[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For a child entering a public high school in MoCo after having spent middle in a private school, what sort of guidance is there in figuring out a class schedule for 9th grade? My 8th grader has applied for one of the special programs, but if she does not get in, should I just contact the front office to ask about determining her schedule for 9th grade? And if so, when should I do that-- early spring? late spring? now?[/quote]

Mine went to Whitman from private. We missed the 8th grade info night (didn’t know about it) so we met with a counselor in April to schedule classes. She was very helpful in mapping out a possible 4 year plan and a 9th grade plan. The 4 year plan was useful because it focused on the potential track in various subjects. The only thing DC undershot was language - should have been in a higher level. But review of language wasn’t the end of the world.

DC took APUSH as a sophomore. Found it relatively easy but DC is a history kid.
