Who Should Take Honors
 Courses?
♦ There are 24 hours in a day. Evaluate how
  much time will be spent in other activities
  such as athletics, fine arts, church, and
  outside of school activities (Don’t forget
  family time!)
♦ We expect much more of secondary
  students. Successful Honors students will
  need to spend more time on homework,
  research, and outside class participation.
