Sophomore Focus Earn good grades. Make sure you are talking with your teachers, attend tutoring/extra help if needed. Check Skyward to know what your grades are. If you are thinking about going to college, begin your community service hours. If you have not already started a foreign language plan to start one during your Junior year. Two years are required for admission to a four-year university and for the Bright Futures Scholarship. Put your best foot forward on the October PSAT. Know which areas need improvement before you take the SAT during junior year. If you have any questions about your grades, attendance, or credits please email or make an appointment to see your counselor.
