Guidelines for Changing and Dropping Classes *Classes are created and teachers are hired based on the course selections students make. *This means we cannot honor requests for schedule changes once students make their decisions. Changes will only be considered for the following reasons: • Students enrolled in a course, yet not meeting course prerequisite • Students who must make a schedule change due to change in their IEP • Seniors who need graduation requirements not already in their schedule • A level change can be considered (but not guaranteed) for a student who is enrolled in a class that is too easy or difficult; however, students are expected to make all attempts to improve their grade before change is considered
Consequences of Failing a Class • Failed classes will NOT be put in for course requests so plan to take credit recovery courses outside of Auburn • Students failing a required class will be required to pay to retake the class(es) at Roosevelt Night School, Summer School or through an approved online recovery program • Elective classes are important. Failing elective classes may interfere with earning the 48 credits required to graduate on time
