Fall/Spring Scheduling Procedures

 Please note:  the last day to add a class is Sept. 10th  for year long and first semester courses.

 
Schedule Changes

Schedule changes will be made during the school year for the following reasons only:

  • systems error
  • change in level of a subject
  • previously failed a course with a teacher
  • missing a prerequisite for a course
  • missing a course required for graduation
  • too few classes scheduled 
  • successful completion of summer course
  • replace study hall with a course (within the scheduling window deadlines)

Students must attend classes on their schedule until formally told by the counseling office that a change has been made. Students must return all books and materials to the teacher of the course that is dropped. A Course Change Request form can be picked up in the counseling office and must be completed to begin the process of consideration for a schedule change.

Schedule Change Deadlines

  • The last day to ADD a new fall semester or yearlong course is: Sept. 10.
  • The last day to ADD a new spring semester course is: Feb. 3.
  • The last day to DROP a semester course without penalty is: Within the first 23 days. 
  • The last day to DROP a yearlong course without penalty is: Within the first 45 days.
  • If the course is dropped after these dates, a “W” plus the grade attained at the time of the drop will be recorded on the student’s transcript.
  • No drops are allowed beyond the course's midpoint. 
  • The grade attained at the time of the drop will not be calculated in the student’s GPA. The student must maintain 6.0 credits of instruction for the school year. Credit is not given for dropped courses.
  • Students may NOT drop a course in order to add another credit-bearing course.

Withdrawal Procedures

Any student who needs to withdraw from school should begin the withdrawal procedure by contacting the main office (and inform your school counselor), preferably two weeks in advance of leaving. The student will receive a withdrawal form. This form needs to be signed by each teacher after all books and materials issued during the year have been returned.

Course Transfer
When a student transfers from an advanced to a non-advanced course,  his/her percentage will be given a 10% boost.
