Ten Tips For a Smooth Transition...

10. Understand how high school credits work and how many are required. Be sure to balance your schedule. Don't take on too much!

9. Know the name of at least one adult at the high school, a teacher, coach, guidance specialist or PAL mentor that either of you can ask for help.

4. Support homework expectations and empasize organizational skills. Time management is key.

3. Make time to talk about school every day. Your teen needs to know that what goes on at school is important to you.

2. Ask for help! Find out what tutoring or extra help is offered.

1. Just remember - everyone else is nervous about high school too. High school is not as scary as you think!

  • How credits work
  • 9th grade classes
  • Smooth transition to HS
