Depending on the subject , classes may be offered at two, three, or even four different ability levels. High school students have a very busy day. They have to take five or six academic subjects as well as physical education. They also have to do homework, do research in the school library, and take part in activities such as the school band, school newspaper, athletics, drama or clubs.
