 Science and Pre-Professional, and RaceTrack.  To best assist you during your orientation, it would be best if you can narrow it down to one or two that you are interested in.  If you can’t that is ok, we will discuss more during your orientation session. I
 have attached a presentation that better explains the emphases.  Make sure you click through the presentation and have your sound on so you can hear the voice over. If you do select an option please email me with your selection prior to your orientation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

 score sheets with you so I can look over them, as well as any question you might have.  I look forward to meeting you next Friday, May 31<sup>st</sup>.  If you have any questions in the meantime, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
