Course Selection for 2022-23 Is Almost Here!
The freshmen and juniors met last week and the sophomores will meet Wednesday of this week for an info session about the upcoming course selection process.
We invite students to start thinking about the courses they are interested in, review graduation requirements, complete the high school planning guide, and have conversations with their teachers, parents, and counselor about the best courses for them to take in order to meet their goals and challenge themselves appropriately.
Students will have the opportunity to select courses in PowerSchool the week of February 7th. The absolute last day for students to pick their courses for next year will be March 11th. This provides ample time for students to think about and educate themselves about courses for next year.
Students and families should review the document (linked below) for all information regarding course selection, graduation requirements, a blank high school plan for them to complete and much more.
More information on the course selection process will be emailed home from the school counseling department in the coming days. For now, students should explore our course offerings in the Program of Studies and have conversations with their teachers about their interests and goals.
