Two of the most difficult stages for parents and students are the transition from Elementary School to Middle School and from Middle School to High School. For both students and parents, the transitions can create a feeling of powerlessness and the inability to manage classes, demands of different teachers, and most importantly the expectations of the curriculum. This blog is to give parents and students pointers on how to manage the requirements at both levels to be successful.

High School Academies
Many high schools now encourage students to focus on an academy or a career path as they pick their classes. This has become a very valuable way for students to become more focused on their education. Students learn through courses that parallel the requirements of a career, as to whether this is a field they want to investigate. For many students, it is what keeps them involved and successful in school. Students develop goals and can focus on college majors that will further enhance their career and life expectations.
