Schedule Changes

Schedule Change Policy 2024-2025

Schedule concerns will be addressed starting Thursday, 8/15/24

Schedule changes will be completed in person only.  Please do not email your counselor to request a schedule change, instead, come into the counseling office during your scheduled free period. Counselors strive to balance class sizes before school begins. Classes will not be overloaded to make a schedule change. 
 
Below are the appropriate reasons to request a schedule change:
  • Seniors who need a course to fulfill graduation requirements.
  • Students who need to drop a course that has already been taken for credit.
  • Students who wish to drop a course. (Reminder: All students must have at least 6 courses. Juniors and Seniors can have 5 classes in the Second semester)
  • Students who are placed in the incorrect academic level can request a change.
  • Students can add classes for the first 5 days of school if there are seats available during a current free period. Schedules cannot be “rearranged” to accommodate adding classes.
We will not be able to change schedules for the following reasons:
  • Requests for specific off periods (we cannot honor these requests)
  • Lunch switches
  • Teacher changes
  • Requests for a current class to be moved to a different period
