Sophomore Connections
Sophomore Connections is a class designed to help students transition to high school through relationships, support, and advocacy. The group size is intentionally small so that each student receives more one-on-one attention. Future Ready Skills are embedded in this course and will be used in mini units such as public speaking, goal setting, high school course planning, and team building. Students will also receive time and help to work on assignments for other classes while also being given time to work through APEX Online Learning in order to leave the class with two credits rather than just the standard one.
