Scheduling and Class Information

This section contains information on scheduling of classes and planning for graduation. If you have any questions about your schedule, classes you may take, classes you need, or graduation requirements, please contact your counselor. You may find your counselor's contact information on the "Meet Your School Counseling Staff" page and request an appointment.

Schedule Changes

Students will not be permitted to change schedules after school begins unless the school counselors identify a course conflict or error. Final course offerings will depend on enrollment and available staffing. Should a course be deleted or a course conflict occur, a substitution will be made. The Principal's approval may be necessary for certain schedule changes.

Dropping a Course

Dropping a course requires the following:

• Unsatisfactory progress in the course or other extenuating circumstances

• Conference with a counselor

• Teacher recommendation

• Parental approval

• Principal approval

If a course is dropped after the seventh (7th) class meeting of the 1^st 9 weeks of a 4x4 course or after the seventh (7^th) class meeting of an even/odd modified block course, a grade of F (failing) is recorded on the scholastic record. A new subject may not be added after the 1^st seven (7) class meetings of any class.

Based on teacher recommendation and principal approval, it may be possible for a student to move from one course level to another in the same subject area. For example, a student making A's in Standard English is moved to the Pre-AP English level class. Grades from the first course are transferred to the second course.

Repeating Courses

A class may be repeated for a higher grade when the student has received a grade of B, C, D, or F the first time the course was taken. Credit toward graduation will be counted only one time for each course.

Summer School

Courses offered in summer school are based solely on enrollment and available staff. Summer school usually begins one week after the close of the regular school year.

Early Graduation

Students are not permitted to graduate ahead of the class with which they originally started kindergarten; only those students who are over-age for their grade or who have repeated a grade will be allowed to complete their high school requirements in three (3) years. The diploma will be awarded at the end of the school year and the student may elect to participate in June graduation.
