Schedule Changes / Dropping Courses

 

v  Early in the Spring Semester students complete the registration/request process for the following year. After carefully reviewing available courses, students, parents, and teachers choose an appropriate and realistic course plan.

v  Parents are strongly encouraged to attend one of the help sessions or schedule an appointment with the school counselor.

v  Course requests will be final at noon on April 29th. After this date, only changes to classes that require tryouts/auditions, or courses to be completed during the summer will be made. Students who are concerned about scheduling should meet with a counselor prior to the April deadline.

v  Additionally, electives will not be altered if listed as the first choice or an alternate. Students should carefully think through their choices during the registration period.

 

Level Change Procedures

 

For students enrolled in AP, Pre-AP, or Honors courses the following guidelines will need to be met in order to transfer courses:

v  Parent and student will communicate with the class instructor about problems being experienced in the class.

v  For a year-long course, a student can change from an advanced to a lower level of the same course before the end of the 1st marking period; otherwise the student will remain in the class until the end of the first semester.

v  After a semester, the student may transfer if the student has an average of 74 or lower for the first semester, or with teacher’s approval.

v  Necessary paperwork (Level Change Request Form) must be completed with all signatures and turned in to the Counseling Office.

v  Grades from the dropped course will be carried into the added course. No adjustment in grades from AP, Pre-AP, or Honors will be made to the new course.

v  If a student exits a course where no transfer levels is available, after twenty class days into a semester, a grade of withdrawn passing (WP) or withdrawn failing (WF) is recorded for that course. When computing semester GPA, WP is not included and WF is averaged as a zero.
