The following will be the only justifiable reasons for schedule changes. Changes will only be approved if the destination course has seats

available.

· To address a computer error

· To address a deficiency in required credits for graduation

· To address a course size imbalance

· To address schedule conflicts

· To address student placement in an intervention course or program

Schedule changes WILL NOT occur due to concerns including, but not limited to:

· Preference for a different teacher

· Preference for a different class period.

· Preference to be in a course with friends

· Change of mind regarding completing a course

Registration will take place in March for the next school year. Students in ALL grades are required to enroll in 8 total credits per year. Students are urged to spend time with this guide and to listen carefully to the counselors and teachers as they give directions and assistance in the classroom setting. It is important to make good decisions now about course selection because course changes will be VERY limited and many courses will fill quickly. When selecting courses, take into consideration your strengths, interests, and goals. Use courses to overcome weaknesses and prepare you for the next chapter in your life. Your high school career deserves your best efforts and thoughtful planning. 

Note: All Independent Study classes require completion of an Independent Study Form, permission from the instructor, and approval by the office. This must be done by March 31, 2025 so good planning is critical. 

A student who has registered for a class is expected to complete the class. If a student has registered for a class, whether a 0.5 credit or 1 credit course, he/she is

expected to fulfill that commitment. The only exception will be when, after consultation between the student and teacher, the teacher recommends that for the good of the student, a drop of the class is best for those concerned. If a student drops any time before the completion of the class, no credit will be given. If, at the time of dropping, the student is failing the course, it will be recorded on his/her permanent record as a drop fail.
