SPECIAL MESSAGE TO PARENTS AND STUDENTS

  It is very important that parents and students understand the importance of planning an educational program and then selecting courses of study to satisfy those plans. The entire scheduling of classes, the purchasing of supplies, textbooks and equipment, and the assignment of teachers is based on the information parents and students provide to the administration through the course selection requests.  It is therefore necessary that courses be carefully selected. Courses that do not have sufficient enrollment will be dropped from the schedule.

A Message To The Students

  This booklet describes the courses, subjects and special programs available to you for the new school year. Please read carefully the descriptions concerning course content and course expectations.

  Your past grades, standardized test results and your interests are key scheduling ingredients. Faculty members can also be a valuable resource to help evaluate how well you may achieve in the next sequential course in a subject area. For example, this year’s math teacher can help you estimate how well you may fare in the various math courses that are a logical sequence after this year.

  Each year we dedicate time for review of student choices, eliminating the need for selection changes later.  There will be a brief add/drop period during the summer to accommodate the few changes that are necessary. There will be no add/drop period during the school year. Only students inappropriately placed may be moved to a higher or lower level. Please make your choices wisely.
