Four Year Plan
9th Grade
What should students do in 9th Grade?
Students need to adjust to the rigor of high school: an increased amount of nightly homework, more frequent and longer assessments. Establishing excellent study skills during this time will serve students throughout high school. If a student is struggling, he or she should reach out to the support structure in the MVCDS community for help.
