Japanese classes next year

For some of you seems pretty early to think about classes for next year, but some schools are already registering. My schedule changed slightly.

A1 Japanese 1 at the junior high
A2 prep time
A3 Japanese AP
A4 Japanese 1

B1 Japanese 2
B2 prep time
B3 Japanese 2 IVC (Class broadcasted to Lehi and PGHS)
B4 Japanese 3

For the past 3 years, Japanese 3 and AP class have been combined, but I could finally this year got this class to become a separated one, so those that I talked to you individually, please take Japanese AP instead of Japanese 3. If I don't have at least 14 students, Japanese 3 and AP will be combined again that means no more full-time contract for me.

Thanks!!!
