What classes should I take in high school, if im pursing a career in Game Art & Design?

Im going to be a sophomore this school year, and I have no idea what classes to take.

The school asked me for my career pathway and I said "Animation", was that a mistake?

Also im terrible at math...

Lastly, can you give me a list of jobs I can get with a Game Art %26amp; Design bachelor鈥檚 degree.
