Please check the prerequisites carefully. Enrollment in honors or advanced placement courses require department approval. Parent signature on the schedule is required.
SCHEDULING FOR 2008-2009 CLASSES
Selection of Classes
Students should review with their parents and make selections, being mindful of course prerequisites. Also be mindful of all weekly activities in terms of academic preparation, athletics, fine arts, and other co-curricular/extra curricular commitments. Once a schedule is submitted, students will not be allowed to request schedule changes until the beginning of the new academic year.
If you have questions regarding classes after viewing the Course Catalog, please contact your counselor.

Course Scheduling Policy
While every effort will be made to accommodate schedule requests, several factors may affect them, such as course availability, prerequisites, and departmental guidelines. Make your course selections carefully, as no course changes are allowed, except for the following circumstances:
- Students who must add PE second semester due to a dropped sport or cut from a sport.
- Teacher-initiated changes, determined through student performance in the class.
- Adjustments determined necessary by a licensed physician/psychologist, or Individual Educational Plan (IEP).
- Our error in scheduling. For example: a schedule that is missing a required course.
Please note that the Naviance Course Scheduler also includes an area to check whether a student is able to attend classes offered at the “zero” block, from 7:15-8:05am. Keep in mind that if a student indicates that she cannot accommodate a “zero” block, she will not be scheduled for any "zero" block course this year, even if her circumstances change. Additionally, it is possible for a student to request "zero" block but not be scheduled for "zero" block based on course availability.
Your daughter may enroll in no fewer than six classes and no more than a total of eight courses per semester. This includes contract sports and after school offerings. Her selections of Honors and AP courses cannot exceed three per semester.
