Hey wait.....I see on your profile that you're just a little over a month younger than me. How can you be starting HS a year before me? :confused: :(

Back in the day when computers were just being installed in public schools, I remember we use to play those math games during Algebra 1.

Hey wait.....I see on your profile that you're just a little over a month younger than me. How can you be starting HS a year before me? :confused: :(

I'm 7weeks away from graduating the 8th grade...

9th grade:
work skills
world geography and history
biology
PE
algebra 1
art 1
english 9

10th grade (this year):
english 10
spanish 1

bel canto (adv. choir)

my senior year the only classes i'll be required to take are english and government but i'll definitely be taking choir too, maybe even the two or three other choirs available as well.

I started high school in August 1998! Let's see how well my memory is and see what I took my freshman year- first semester:

theology (religion)
pre-algebra
physical science
PE
chorus
geography
study hall
english

I think that's it! wow, I can't believe I remembered all that. That's not really the order of the classes (in the day) though.

I left HS in 1998 and have no idea what I took. :lol: Basic stuff.

Hmm lets see if I can remember -

9th grade -
Pre Algebra
Drawing
World Geography
Biology

English

10th grade -

11th grade -

I think that's about it. As you can see we didn't need very many credits to graduate and the classes were not that demanding. We only needed 2 math credits, 2 science credits. Computers and Foreign language were not required. I took the easiest classes possible. I couldn't wait to get out of that place. I didn't even have Algebra I or a foreign language till I got to college. I regret spending my hard earned money on those classes when I could have taken them in HS for free.

12th grade um...that year will be a lot more free for me. No math, no science. I'll focus mainly on english and art classes, even music classes would be nice, although I don't know if you have to start in 9th and go up, and I went the art way. So that will be a fun year. Maybe I'll pull the fire alarm on the last day, which I won't, but maybe I would. Even though I won't.

Oh... I HATED my Freshman year. I started homeschooling halfway through, but here was my schedule before that, the only special class I took was Choir(P.E. was required), plus English/Physical Science(had to be technical)/Algebra/World History.

I graduated in 1982,I hated high school I had to take a coupl of special education classes,which also I hated,if they would have taught me better I would have like it,but I got picked on,not a lot ,but enough. Now those days are over,my 25 high school reuioun is oming up next year,geeezzzz.

I'm 7weeks away from graduating the 8th grade...

Oh, did you skip a grade before?

yeaaaaaaah i really don't remember everything. don't take blow-off classes like a lot of people will. it's really not worth the time if you plan on going to college. get good grades your freshman year because it only gets harder from then on.
