Curricular Choices: For Rising 10th Graders

Thank you everyone who attended last week's Curriculum Matters programs.

Click below for a recording of the information presented to 9th grade parents:

(0:00) - Welcome from Mrs. Hsu, Interim Head of Upper School.
(1:30) - Ms. Sabrina McCartney, MYP Coordinator, provides an explanation of the courses offered in 10th grade.
(9:00) - Mrs. Nancy Hsu reviews the pathways to graduation that are available to students in grades 11 and 12.
(18:10) - Mrs. Dawn Bickoff presents an overview of the college counseling program.
(31:45) - Mrs. Hsu wraps up and presents next steps.

This is an exciting time as your teen prepares for their final year in the Middle Years Programme (MYP). Please sit down with your 9th grader to select the courses they would like to enroll in for 10th grade. Students will have an expanded choice of courses this year - in their core subjects as well as electives. If you have any questions, please sign up for a course selection meeting here or email Ms. McCartney directly.

Course Selection Choices must be received by Monday, March 8, 2021. During March and April, college counselors will meet with all 9th grade students and their parents. If at that meeting your child decides to change a course selection, their college counselor can resubmit an updated request.

You can download the 2021-2022 Curriculum and Registration Guide for detailed information about graduation requirements and descriptions of all courses that are offered for 10th grade and beyond.
