This week we wrapped up our 2021/22 Course Registration presentations and Webinars for our rising 9th and 11th graders and their parents.  In addition, a Google Slideshow was sent to rising 10th graders so that they could, at their convenience, refamiliarize themselves with the course registration process.  All students, with the exception of our incoming 9th graders will have the opportunity to register for classes beginning Monday, February 8 through Wednesday, February 17.  The rising 9th graders will begin registration on Thursday, February 11. 

A quick note:  The course registration window is not on a first come, first serve basis.  As long as your student submits their course requests by the 17th, their choices will be given equal consideration.

Schedule changes this semester can only be made for the following reasons and by the following dates:

  1. If a teacher recommends a level change due to misplacement (i.e. Extended Math to Core Math, Spanish III to Spanish II), a change can be made with parent, counselor and administrative approval. The original class will not appear on the transcript. Deadline is Friday, February 12.
  2. Between the 5th and 10th week of a course, if a student needs to move down a level, the dropped course will be listed on the transcript with a WP (Withdraw Pass) or WF (Withdraw Fail). The WP or WF grade is not included in the calculation of GPA nor is credit granted. The grade calculated in the new course will only include work completed for the new course. Deadline is Friday, March 19.
  3. No level changes after March 19.
