TEACHER INTERN
This course is designed for students who have exceptional skills and talents in a specific subject area. This course provides students with training in the principles of teaching and adolescent psychology. This will afford them an opportunity to apply their skills as tutors and teaching assistants. Instructors will provide an initial orientation in effective teaching techniques. Interns will be expected to work closely with the instructor to whom they are assigned. Regular tutorial assistance to needy students and occasional assistance with instruction will be a minimum expectation. As the development of skills and knowledge expand, interns may take on a greater role. Students must be on target to complete a-g requirements or instructor/admin approval. NOTE: students requesting TI positions must meet all requirements of being a TI, and should have an alternate course chosen in the event that they don't meet eligibility requirements, or if the period and teacher they requested are not available.

OFF CAMPUS 1/4
Off Campus” is not really a course but a placeholder on students’ schedules if they opt to not have a full 4-period schedule in a given term. Please be advised that having an off campus period has specific eligibility requirements that must be met, and students who do not meet these requirements will have to take another class. OC is only offered 1st or 4th period. Students with off campus periods cannot park at Feist Park, as the gate between Feist Park and GBHS will be locked during the school day from beginning of 1st period to the end of 4th. Students are expected to check out daily at the front gate when leaving campus (applies to 4th period OC only). Seniors may have just 1 OC period each term (maximum two per year: 1 fall, 1 spring), and juniors may only have 1 OC period their entire junior year.
