This form is used for students to see what classes are available to register for and to select what the electives and alternative choices they most like are.

Elective classes in the middle school do not have prerequisites, except for languages and music.  However, even in those classes, an interview with and permission from the teacher could mean placement in an advanced level is possible.

One of the purposes of Wednesday late start time is vertical alignment with the high school.  This results in aligning the content in the class to help prepare students for high school.  This is particularly true for STEAM, Robotics, Computer Science, and world languages.  

Students who take Beginning Mandarin (Mandarin I) and Intermediate Mandarin (Mandarin II) may skip Chinese I in the high school and start at Chinese II.  Students who have also taken Advanced Mandarin (Mandarin III) may also take a placement test to place into Chinese III.

Students who take Spanish A and Spanish B will have the opportunity to move into Spanish II in the high school.  If they take Spanish B in 8th grade they do not need to take a placement test, however if Spanish B is taken in 7th grade a test will be taken to see if students have retained the requisite skills and knowledge.
