Registering for Classes

 

2024-25 High School Course Selection Guide

Students, with the assistance of their caregivers, will fill out a registration sheet selecting core classes and prioritizing preferred electives.  Then they will meet 1 on 1 with their school counselor to identify the 8 classes they want in their schedule with some alternate elective back ups.  Counselors discuss futrue plans and historical grades to advise students.

Things to know about registration:

  • It is not 1st come 1st serve - the true scheduling work does not happen until July
  • The Master Schedule is created in May based on the enrollment numbers from registration
  • We do not know for sure who is teaching what
  • Students should select classes based on their interests; not their friend's interests
  • In July counselors work on schedules starting with Seniors and work down to Freshmen
  • Most elective classes have a cap - maximum number of students - and will fill up
  • It is a fluid process

Drop/Add - Schedule adjustments

  • Course selections can be changed through April
  • Appointments can be made 2 weeks prior to school starting to adjust the schedule - dates are To Be Announced (TBA)
  • Students have the first 5 days of the 1st semester and the first 3 days of the 2nd semster to drop and add classes
