DD finished her first 2 finals this week, and the last 2 will be Monday and Tuesday. Then she will officially be a junior!
She will be pretty busy this summer- her new high school requires 60 volunteer hours over summer at a single agency, so she (and I) will be working 3 days a week at a local food bank. She is also finally taking driver's education- that will be a 2 week course the second half of June. She also will have a few summer social opportunities to meet some of her new classmates before she has to report to her new dorm in mid August.
Her academic requirements for the summer are to take a science online course (kind of a getting ready for the rigors of her new high school's science program thing) and summer reading for American Studies.
Official registration hasn't taken place yet, but she is fairly certain of the classes she will be requesting:
-American Studies (3 trimester combination of American Lit and American history)
-AP Chemistry (2 trimesters)
-precalculus (3 trimesters)
-Latin (they have her slotted into intro right now, but she is hoping to bump up to intermediate after a weeklong assessment period)
-Physics as her 3rd trimester science
-Pilates and Yoga as PE requirement
-varsity soccer as PE requirement
-other electives- possibly ceramics, piano, or other arts course
As for mom and dad, we are buying dorm necessities, chauffeuring her back and forth to classes, friends' houses, and activities, and just trying to wrap our brains around the fact that our baby will be leaving us in August.
