Tips for Sophomores

Fall Semester

  • Classes do get harder so make sure to check in with your teachers as needed and/or attend Homework Labs.
  • Keep your grades up. Sophomore grades are tied directly to your college applications and your financial aid eligibility status.
  • Start researching careers and college majors using Naviance.
  • Start exploring the possibility of taking IB classes for next year. Talk with your teachers and other students to gain as much information as possible about classes you’re interested in.  
  • Study for final exams in December.

Spring Semester

  • Attend the IB Parent Night in January with your parents to learn more about taking IB classes next year.
  • SVCTE Campus Tour - Sign up with your counselor if interested in any of these programs and/or trades for next year.
  • Sign up for the PSAT exam given in March.
  • Start researching colleges & attend college visits in the College & Career Center.
  • Sign up for the College MAP or Strive for College Mentor Program.
  • Sign up for Summer School if needed with your counselor.
  • Plan on visiting colleges during family road trips or upcoming summer vacations.
