<p>For most students, high school is a different animal than middle school. For example, at my son and daughter’s middle school, the teachers checked homework everyday and wanted students to organize their notebooks in a certain way. When my kids entered high school, their teachers didn’t care how they wanted to organize a notebook or how they took notes. And the teachers never checked homework – they just expected students to do it. It was a huge organizational challenge for my kids and thankfully the school realized that most students need time to make that educational adjustment, so freshman were not allowed to take honors courses or AP’s. My kids took honors and AP’s from sophomore through senior year and they did just fine! So will you!</p>
