Course Schedules

Scheduling Process

Students are urged to carefully plan their course selections. Although students will receive specific instructions and assistance from school counselors during the pre-registration process, the responsibility for selecting appropriate career and graduation choices rests with students and parents. It is very important that students and parents give careful consideration to selecting appropriate courses. The choices students make on the course selection sheets determine the master schedule of course offerings available. The master schedule, though never perfect, is designed to maximize student opportunities and conflicts.

In order to provide staff and schedule efficiently, student schedules will not be changed to select different teachers or lunch periods, or to drop a previously selected elective, or a course in which the student enrolls with a waiver.

Schedule corrections will be considered during the first five class meeting days of each semester and only if a student fails to satisfy prerequisites, if the school has made an error; if a scheduling conflict exists; for a student who successfully completes summer school, correspondence courses, and/or credit-by-exam; or for other compelling educational circumstances. To correct a scheduling error, schedule changes do not require parent signature.

Requests to change a schedule after the first five class meeting days will only be considered for a compelling educational circumstance. The student and parent requesting the change must meet with a school counselor to discuss implications.

Following the counselor conference, the campus scheduling committee will meet to review the request and make a recommendation to the campus principal or designee. Final approval for a change must be given by the principal or designee.
