Cursos de la Secundaria
Volume 1 | Issue 1
May 2012
Desafié a su estudiante ahora con clases que pueden ayudarle en la preparatoria.
Guarde expectativas altas para logros académicos.
Los cursos que su estudiante escoge en la secundaria hacen un impacto en su educación en la preparatoria. Debe considerar varios factores al seleccionar clases en la secundaria.
Vigile el tiempo de estudiantes fuera de la escuela. Los estudiantes que toman parte en eventos de la escuela son menos probables de abandonar la escuela.
Desafié a su estudiante: Seleccione cursos que emparejan sus habilidades, pero también son desafiantes. Los padres, maestros y consejeros de la secundaria pueden ayudar a estudiantes hacer las decisiones correctas. No permita que escojan clases fáciles pensando que la secundaria no importa. Entre más sean retados, mejor preparados estarán en la preparatoria.
Hable con su hijo acerca de planes educativos. Comience a hablar con estudiantes desde el kínder acerca de la importancia de la educación.
Investigue opciones: Algunos cursos en la secundaria pueden ser tomados para el crédito en la preparatoria.
Insista que su hijo persista al aprender aunque sea duro y no opte para la manera fácil y se salga de la escuela.
In This Issue Welcome to GEAR UP • Choosing Middle School Courses • Statistics You Should Know Bienvenido a GEAR UP • Eligiendo Cursos En La Secundaria • Estadísticas Que Usted Debe Saber
Sin embargo, cursos de crédito de la preparatoria generalmente demandan mucho y requieren habilidades de organización buenas y una determinación para completar el trabajo. Hable con maestros y nuestro consejero sobre cursos en la secundaría de crédito para la preparatoria.
Asegúrese que su hijo asista la escuela. Los empleadores y colegios miran registros de asistencia así como grados.
Investigue cursos disponibles: Algunos cursos de la secundaria también son diseñados para ayudar a estudiantes prepararse para la preparatoria. Por ejemplo, si a un estudiante le gusta computadoras y está considerando clases de computadoras en la preparatoria, usted quizás quiera que tome primero una clase de teclados en la secundaria. Eso aumentará la velocidad de escribir a máquina y ayudarle estar mejor preparados para cursos en la preparatoria que requieren el conocimiento del teclado.
Busque información sobre el colegio. Aquí hay algunos sitios de web útiles: gentx.org ownyourownfuture.com aie.org
Pregunte al consejero acerca de los cursos que ofrecemos que puedan ayudar a desarrollar los intereses de su estudiante. Visite el consejero de su estudiante: Visite al consejero de su estudiante en la secundaria con respecto a intereses y planes para el futuro. El consejero tiene una abundancia de información y está ansioso por compartirlo. Recuerde: La educación que reciben los estudiantes en la preparatoria es directamente conectado con lo que hacen en la secundaria. Piense sobre estas decisiones con cuidado.

Bievenidos a GEAR UP 2017 Ensuring Your Child is College & Career Ready
Middle School Courses Challenge your student now with classes that can help in high school.
Hold high expectations of academic achievement. Monitor students’ time spent outside of school. Students who participate in school events are less likely to drop out of school. Talk to your child about educational plans. Start talking to students in kindergarten about the importance of education. Insist that your child persists when learning is hard and not opt for the easy way out of school. Make sure your child is attending school. Employers and colleges look at attendance records as well as grades. Seek information about going to college. Here are some helpful websites: gentx.org ownyourownfuture.com aie.org
Did You Know... Statistics Every Parent (& Child) Should Know High school dropouts earn an average of $14,500 a year. High school graduates earn an average of $7,000 more a year than non-graduates. College graduates can earn up to $1.5 million more over the course of a lifetime.
Less than 40% of high school dropouts are employed each year. ED NE

90% of jobs are expected to require some postsecondary experience.
The courses students choose in middle school make an impact on their high school education. You should consider several factors when selecting your middle school classes. Challenge your student: Select courses that match their abilities, but are also challenging. Parents, teachers and middle school counselor can help students make the right decisions. Don’t let them choose easy classes thinking that middle school doesn’t matter. The more students are challenged now, the better prepared they will be in high school. Investigate options: Some middle school courses can be taken for high school credit. However, realize that high school credit courses are usually very demanding and require good organizational skills and a determination to get the work done. Talk to teachers and our middle school counselor about high school credit courses in middle school.

El programa GEAR UP es financiado por el Departamento de la Educación. Estamos asociados con Stephen F. Austin State University y Angelina College así como los distritos de Hudson, Central, Nacogdoches y Woden. Por favor llame o mande un correo electrónico con cualquier pregunta o preocupación. Estaré con este grupo de estudiantes hasta que se gradúen.
Coordinadora De GEAR UP Usted probablemente me reconoce como la Directora anterior de Lufkin Middle School. Estoy muy emocionada con mi nuevo papel como Coordinadora de LISD GEAR UP. Durante más de 30 años mi pasión ha sido proporcionar educación de calidad para cada estudiante. Es mi creencia que cuando oportunidades surgen, estudiantes bien preparados tienen elecciones ilimitadas para sus futuros.
For example, if a student likes computers and is considering taking computer classes in high school, you might want them to first take a keyboarding class in middle school. That will increase typing speed and help them be better prepared for high school courses that require knowledge of the keyboard.
Como padres, nosotros deseamos que nuestros hijos sean productivos e independientes. Espero trabajar con usted durante los próximos cinco años para proporcionar el ánimo y el apoyo para hacer que sueños se realizen.
Meet with your student’s counselor: Visit with your student’s middle school counselor regarding interests and future plans. The counselor has a wealth of information and is anxious to share it. Remember: The education students receive in high school is directly connected to what they do in middle school. Think about these decisions carefully.
Gracias Vickie Evans Coordinadora De GEAR UP

Research available courses: Some middle school courses are also designed to help students prepare for high school.
