Key Terms to Understand
The CRF (Course Request Form) is a grade-specific sheet that every student fills out. This form is a list of the classes a student would like to take during the next school year. We try to accommodate students' preferences, but no elective or off-roll courses are guaranteed. For this reason, please select 3 alternate options on any elective selections. We ask for student and parent signatures to ensure we are all on the same page academically. AP and Honors courses also require a Teacher signature. Note: if the student is planning to move, and won't be attending PHS next year, they should still complete the CRF process as if they will be here.
AP Agreement
We ask all our students requesting AP courses to turn in an AP Agreement with student and parent signature. This Agreement is an acknowledgement that you are aware of the extra time and effort required of these courses and that the student agrees to follow through with the entire course. You can find the AP Agreement here. One AP Agreement covers ALL AP classes, so each student only needs one.
Master Schedule
The Master Schedule (all the classes we offer) is designed based upon the course requests we get from students and our enrollment numbers. We re-build the master schedule every year because the size of the school and demand for classes change. We start building the schedule as soon as we get the requests, but it is not finalized until just before the school year starts in August.
Off Roll
Some students will find that they prefer to lighten their load for various reasons, such as sports or other activities. These students can choose an Off Roll period in which they do not attend a class. Students are able to request which trimester and period (1st or 5th) they would prefer. However, because Off Roll periods are secondary to Academic and Elective classes, Off Rolls will be granted where course selections allow. Some students will end up with Off Roll periods in the middle of the day to accommodate.
