Learning Resources: Twelfth Grade

2020 Learning Suggestions
Eleventh Grade going into Twelfth Grade

Welcome, seniors! The intention of High School Learning Resources is to integrate school learning into home life. Below you’ll find suggestions that include playful activities that also reinforce academic skills, in a relaxed family environment. This year, given the COVID situation, we have added more online opportunities for learning.
