News from School Counselors

We know it has been quite busy these past few weeks! We encourage all of our students to take advantage of this day off and get more sleep, log off the computer, hang out with friends, spend time outdoors, and generally focus on self-care. We know it can be challenging at times to find the balance between school and personal life, and as always, we are here to chat with any students or parents who need support. 

As a reminder, schedule changes 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. Math HL to Math SL, Extended Math to Core Math, Spanish III to Spanish II), a change can be made with counselor, parent and administrative approval.  The original class will not appear on your student’s transcript.  Deadline is Friday, September 16.
    2. Between the sixth and tenth 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).  WP or WF grades are not included in the calculation of GPA nor is credit granted.  The grade calculated in the new course will start fresh and only include work completed for the new course.  Deadline is Friday, October 21.
  • No level changes after October 21.

 Please reach out to your student’s counselor or ask them to speak with their counselor (Mr. Sambula Jr., Ms. Leoni or Ms. Valenzuela) if you/they have any questions.
