I forgot this: Mandatory classes lessen each year.

Grade 9 - Mandatory (English, French, Math, Science, Geography, Gym) and 2 electives/options
Grade 10 - Mandatory (English, Math, Science, History, Careers/Civics) and 3 electives/options
Grade 11 - Mandatory (English, Math) and 6 electives/options
Grade 12 - Mandatory (English) and 7 electives/options

Careers/Civics are two separate classes, but each one takes up half of the same semester.

Ours go like this...

Grade 10 - Mandatory: 2 English (English Writing & English - General or Academic), Math (General, Academic or AP), Science (General, Academic or AP), and Geography (Canadian Geography or Ancient History - General or Academic, only for Canadian geo). Then you can pick 3 others classes to your liking.

Grade 11 - Mandatory: English (General or Academic), Math (General, Academic or AP), A Science (there's many different choices, there's robotics, and the normal chem, bio and I cannot remember the other one - General, Academic or AP), and Geography (Canadian Geography or some other **** - General or Academic). Then you can pick 3 others classes to your liking.

Grade 12 - Mandatory: English (General or Academic), Geography (Canadian Geography or some other **** - General or Academic). You don't have to take math or science, but to graduate with honors, you have to. Then you can pick 3 or 5 others classes to your liking.

You need 20 credits to graduate (I believe). So you can only fail 4 classes to graduate.

I currently have eight.

We have to go to oour school and see the homeroom lists on a billboard. It sucks. You're always there when someone you don't know is. It's so awkward too. When i went last year, when i was in grade 9, i was basically in pjs with my hair still curly and there was a cute boy there. He always seemed to look at me with this death stare in the halls every since. ahahahha

We get a schedule for the entire year. I think that's rad. since you get hyped for a good teachers/ classes your friends were in. It also allows you to be able to make changes. Like some kids fialed math first semester but they were cool with it cause they could just replace their elective next semester 'rip'

Yeah we get a schedule for the whole year too, but if you wanna make changes for semester 2, you can make them up until the second week of that semester.

I start college on September 22, but I seriously have to start dorm shopping soon.
