2009-2010 REGISTRATION KICK-OFF
Hard to believe that it is time for our students to begin selecting classes
for the ’09-’10 school year! The process began in December with guidance
lessons. In January we will hold an incoming 9th grade parent night,
Guidance Lessons in the classroom for 9th grade students, a parent night for
current students and, an Elective Fair held during lunch over 2-days.

*Please be sure to use The Catalog of Approved High School Courses to review
course selections for the upcoming school year. Please note course
descriptions and prerequisites. Each student was given a catalog on Jan.
27th.
ALTERNATE CLASSES, SCHEDULE CHANGES & COURSE RECOMMENDATIONS:
Please note that seven credits must be requested on the course reg. form
this applies to upcoming seniors as well.
In addition, students must list 3 courses to be used as alternates in case
an elective chosen is not available or there is a scheduling conflict.
*PLEASE be sure that your child selects 3 alternates that they are very much
interested in taking. There is always a chance that we will look to their
alternates if there is a conflict with their first seven choices.
WE WILL NOT MAKE SCHEDULE CHANGES BECAUSE A STUDENT DOES NOT WANT TO TAKE
ONE OF THEIR ALTERNATES.
Concerns about a course recommendation? Please contact your child’s School
Counselor to proceed with a course placement review. This process must be
completed by March 31st.
