9th Grade Registration is a google form that students and families will complete and submit.  

Science update-9th grade students are now required by the state of MN to take HS Earth Science.  All 9th grade students will be registered for HS Earth Science.  

• For students who are interested in science, you may also take Biology in 9th grade.  AP Biology is no longer available to 9th grade students.  Biology must be taken before you can take AP Biology. 

High School Seminar, PE9, Health and Art 9 are also required courses that 9th grade students will take.  These are each a semester course and will alternate in students schedules. 

If you take Band, Choir or Orchestra AND Biology in 9th grade- you will not be scheduled for Health and Art 9 and you will take health and art in 10th grade. This is necessary to make room in your schedule. 

If you request a semester course you will want to make sure you are selecting another semester course so that your schedule is full for the entire school year. 

We do our best to ensure students get their first choice electives.  However, some elective classes fill quickly.  Students should select 4 alternative elective options. 

If you do not plan to return to MSA for 9th grade, you will select not returning in skyward when requesting classes and do not need to register for any additional courses. 

If you do not request courses by the deadline, elective courses will be chosen for you.
