High School Schedule Repair

Every January, high school students pre-register for classes and the school wide schedule is built from the classes that are  selected.  Counselors do their best to create an optimal academic schedule for each student based on requested courses and graduation requirements. Freshmen must have 4 classes on their schedules each quarter.  10th-12th graders are required to have a minimum of 3 classes on their schedules for each quarter, and are highly encouraged to maximize their education by taking a full schedule of courses.

We recognize that some academic situations may require changes to be made to student schedules after they are created.

Reasons for Schedule Repair

Students may make schedule repairs for the following reasons ONLY:

1. Mistake on schedule 

Examples: duplicate classes, incorrect level placement, failed a class, already taken class, do not meet prerequisites, missing a core class, balancing core classes

2. Other changes deemed to be in a student’s best academic interest 

Examples: adding a class to fill a free period, adding an academic elective for NCAA eligibility, adding classes to align with a student’s academic plan (ICAP) as represented in Xello (PSD’s career planning tool), courses necessary for meeting a graduation requirement (seniors will have priority), facilitating participation in PSD programs and extracurricular activities

Please be advised that counselors have been instructed not to change classes unless the change adheres to the above guidelines. Counselors will not make schedule changes for specific requests for teachers or class with friends. Please note that we cannot overfill classes. Once classes are full, they are full; no exceptions. Administrators may override class sizes as circumstances warrant. 

How to Request a Schedule Repair

Click here to access the Schedule Repair Request Form

Schedule Repair Forms will be available in the counseling office during the final week of the term and the first week of the new term and can also be accessed via the link above.

Schedule repairs may be requested during the first 5 days of the quarter by filling out a schedule repair form and submitting it to the counseling office. Counselors will email the student and their parent/guardian upon reviewing the Schedule Repair Form to inform them if the request has been approved or denied. Students are to attend their classes each period and will not be excused from class to complete a schedule repair. 

Withdraw & Withdraw-Fail

Withdraw - Students may drop a class during the first four weeks of the quarter (if the drop will not put the student below the required 3 classes/quarter) and receive a “W” on the transcript.  This will not affect a student’s GPA, but will be a part of the student’s permanent record with possible impacts on the student’s eligibility for future opportunities. Students will need to fill out a Withdraw Form (available in the counseling office) and obtain signatures from their teacher, their counselor and a parent/guardian in order to withdraw from a class.

Withdraw-Fail - Students may drop a class after the first four weeks of the quarter (if the drop will not put the student below the required classes) which will result in a “F” on the student transcript and will affect the student’s GPA. This date is set by the district each quarter. Students will need to fill out a Withdraw Form and obtain signatures from their teacher, their counselor and a parent/guardian in order to withdraw-fail from a class.

Concurrent Enrollment

College level courses (High School Select and Campus Select) adhere to the deadlines and policies provided by the college which may be different from the high school.
