Things to do this summer

  1. Make sure you do your required reading for your English Honors class.

  3. If you're a rising senior, study for the SAT/ACT - sign up for the free course through South Carolina Virtual School. Rising sophomores and juniors, South Carolina Virtual School offers free PSAT prep, as well.
  4. Volunteer (many agencies actively seek high school students. Volunteering gives you job experience).
