MESSAGE FROM YOUR COUNSELORS



Student schedules will be available in Skyward on Monday, August 7th.


As is the case at the start of each school year, counselors will be enrolling new students as well as replying to emails (best format of communication at this time). We will answer your email as soon as possible.


In order to make sure that we respond to your email in a sequential manner, we kindly ask you to please try and add your main point in the subject line (i.e. schedule) and reply to the same email thread, otherwise, we might miss some of your most recent messages when reaching out to you.


Here is a list of reasons for requesting a schedule correction/change:

  • An error in the schedule of your course: Ex: two classes in the same period, short classes (less than 8), sequencing problems (Span. 2 before Span. 1), missing a failed course needed for graduation, you have a scheduled course completed previously; i.e. in the summer or last year.
  • Change level of a course. Ex. On level to Honor or AP.
  • Balancing cores in your schedule. Ex: 2 cores in the fall and 2 cores in the spring. (per class availability)
  • Program/Placement issues: Ex: a requested change out of or into athletics, a fine arts program, ROTC, Real Estate, INCubator, etc. ***If applicable Director or Coaches approval is required***


Some things to keep in mind when looking at your schedule:

  • If a course that you requested conflicted with a core class, then one of your alternates was used.
  • Each course has a building number associated with it as well as period and room number. We are a TRIAD (3 campuses) with two Technology, Exploration and Career Centers. A total of 5 campuses where your courses ‘could’ be held.
    • Here is how you know where to go (building number associated with each of your courses)
        • 001 is LHS
        • 009 is Killough
        • 014 is Harmon
        • 003 is Career Center East
        • 011 is Career Center West


Once on campus, please head to the cafeteria area to catch your bus to your destination.


Thank you for your patience and for your continued support!
