Academic Support & Success
Course Name: Bishop Grimes Success (Academic Preparatory Class), 1 year Grade Level: 7th (and transfer students when possible)
The Bishop Grimes Success course introduces 7th graders and transfer students to Bishop Grimes and what the school’s expectations are for students for academic success. Transitioning to a new school is a big step, and this course seeks to provide students with the strategies and means that will allow them to develop and grow resulting in their continued success throughout their education. Through Bishop Grimes Success, students will be presented with a multitude of lessons and hands-on activities that include developing good classwork habits, study skills, self-advocacy, as well as foster appropriate school behavior and social expectations.
Bishop Grimes Success will take students through the school year day by day to support classroom and school expectations ranging from the first day of school, test taking, virtual classes, midterm reviews, final exams, classroom behavior, and more. Instead of providing students with a study hall that may or may not be properly utilized, Bishop Grimes Success gives students a structured road map to Bishop Grimes and their academic success.
