Course Selections for 2026-2027 School Year
COURSE SELECTIONS ARE UNDERWAY!
Your involvement in the course selection process is key to your child's success!
While students start this journey by meeting with their counselors, we encourage them to share those conversations with you.
To help keep the dialogue going at home, all the information shared with your child is available right here on our website.
You can also find a copy of the presentation in the 6th and 7th grade Schoology folders.
