what to know for 11th grade
Juniors, this is your year to INVESTIGATE! Many students start thinking about their future plans during 11th grade, such as what colleges they want to apply to or what career path they might want to pursue. This year is a great time to explore your interests and get involved in activities or clubs that you're passionate about. Also, if you're thinking about taking advanced classes or AP courses, now's the time to start planning for that. These classes can challenge you and help you prepare for college-level work. So, make the most of your junior year – study hard, explore your options, and have fun along the way!
