SCHEDULING
The mission of the BHS/GHS Scheduling Team is to prepare all students to be ready for college, career, and life after high school by providing access to a meaningful course of study related to their graduation, developmental needs, and personal interests and goals.
Registration and scheduling can sometimes feel confusing and overwhelming. This guide is designed to help you navigate your options at Gallatin High, which cannot be done without the help of many people:
Students-It is your responsibility to talk with your parents/guardians and teachers about the best courses for you. Carefully consider your commitments both in and out of school, graduation requirements, personal interests, study habits, and your future plans as you select classes each year. Do not be afraid to challenge yourself.
Parents/Guardians-It is your responsibility to talk with your student(s) about their future plans, your expectations, and the workload required for each course. Carefully consider what you know about your student(s) and his or her capabilities as you help advise them to explore their interests.
Teachers and Counselors-It is your responsibility to make the most accurate recommendations for each student based on their skills and interests. Teachers best understand the curriculum in their departments, and thus are able to recommend the best course in the sequence. Counselors are familiar with graduation requirements, grade level expectations and are able to ensure students are exploring options, challenging themselves as learners, and staying on track for graduation.
Together we hope to ensure that each student has a schedule that meets his or her individual needs, graduation requirements, and personal interests. If you or your parents/guardians have questions throughout the process, please feel free to contact your counselor for additional information or clarification. Thank you for your role in the scheduling process!
