PARTING THOUGHTS
• As demonstrated by this video, the Honors Academycurriculum is designed to be both challenging and rewarding. It is not for everyone.
• This is not to say that students who are not in the Honors Academy cannot take some of the courses mentioned as Honors Academy courses; however, acceptance into an Honors Academy assures both breadth and depth of rigorous study.
