Once students register for courses in the spring, they have the responsibility to be certain that the correct courses were requested. Students who fail required courses may receive the credit through online learning, by retaking the course during the next school year, or during summer school if that is an option offered. Specific information concerning the online learning program may be obtained from the counseling center at each high school. Students who do not plan to make up failed courses through online learning or summer opportunities should submit schedule change requests to school counselors.
Student schedules for the school year will be posted prior to the beginning of the school year. It is important that students carefully review their schedules. The period for student-initiated requests to change schedules will follow the posting of schedules on the Home Access Center. Students must contact their school counselor in person to initiate a request for change. Requests will be considered, and changes made depending on the students’ career plans and available space in the class requested. It may also become necessary for some administrative schedule changes to occur. The final decision of schedule changes rests with the principal.
Student-initiated requests for a schedule change will not be considered once the marking period begins, unless the subject teacher and school counselor concur that the student is inappropriately placed. A grade of F for the marking period will appear on the report card and the permanent record for any course that is dropped after September 30.
