ADD/DROP PERIOD (the first 6 days of first semester and the first 6 days of second semester for a .5 credit course)
Once the master schedule has been completed in mid-June, students and families will have the opportunity to request a course change which will be processed based on course availability and with a parent note.
Counselors will be available one week prior to the opening of school for course changes based on course availability and during the first 6 days of first semester and the first 6 days of second semester for a .5 credit course for course changes, with a parent note and based on course availability.
Any change after the ADD/DROP period will not be made except for compelling circumstances. An example of a compelling circumstance is a medical issue that would necessitate a change to a student’s schedule in the interest of his/her personal health and well-being. In this example, documentation from the student’s physician would be required prior to adjusting a student’s schedule.
If there is an error on a student’s schedule, (for example, a student was enrolled in an incorrect second year course requiring a prerequisite), the student’s school counselor will make the necessary correction.
Student course requests may not always be accommodated even if the course request form is submitted on time. Class size or section conflicts may prevent a student from receiving his/her choice of elective or content courses.
An approved drop of a given course after the first marking period of that course will reflect a “Withdrawn Failing” or “Withdrawn Passing” for withdrawal on the student’s transcript.
