Course Selection
It is time for students to begin their course selection for the 2019-2020 school year!
Counselors visited with students this week. They went over the High School Course Planning Guide and online course selection for next year (see link below). The portal used for course selection for the 2019-2020 school year opened on Wednesday, January 9 and will close on Sunday, January 20 at midnight. Teachers will be speaking to students about core class recommendations and elective choices for next year. Students are encouraged to consider their post-secondary plans and graduation requirements as they select courses.
Counselors will be available in the commons during all lunch shifts on January 15, 16 and 17 to answer any individual questions about course selection.
