Course Selection for Sophomores

Sophomore course selections

In 2012-2013, Health will be taught collectively to juniors and sophomores in fall semester. (Last year, the course was taught only to juniors.) This combination will allow us a better use of our teaching resources. Sophomores will then have the chance to start their Fine Arts work in the spring, through Studio Art I.
