Course Selection Info For Incoming Freshmen
It’s time to select classes for the 2024-2025 school year! We have provided a number of resources and opportunities below to help you choose your classes. We really encourage you to take the time to preview all of the information before making your selections. There is no priority for the first to submit. Once you have had a chance to consider all of your options, please fill out our Course Selection Google Form. Please submit your requests by March 22nd. Thank you!
Please take your time, have conversations as a family, and access one of our opportunities to get your questions answered (see below). We are asking that you only submit once, as multiple entries can cause confusion. Thank you for taking the time to read through the information provided. We look forward to working with the Class of 2028 next year!
