2nd Semester Schedules:
Schedules for the second semester of the 2022/23 school year will be viewable to students on the StudentVue App and in the Student Portal on Wednesday, January. As a reminder, students registered for classes last spring for the entire school year and the master schedule of courses was built based on student course requests during registration. Therefore, changes to student classes will not be made between semesters. The only changes being considered are for seniors who could be missing a required course for graduation or if a student is scheduled for an academic course for which they have already received credit. The first day of second semester is Thursday, January 5.
Course Registration for the 2023/24 School Year:
Course Registration for the 2023/24 school year will take place in January & February. Look for the link to the Registration Hub on the Parkview website beginning on January 17th. The registration hub will contain the timeline and all the information needed for course registration for both students and parents.
