Scheduling Process for the School Year 2019.2020 • March 7, 2019 – 8th grade students will schedule their electives and review their core classes. • Core classes are recommended from your current core teachers. • Core classes may be changed • Master schedule will be built and schedules will be available for pick up in June (Dates and times TBA) • All schedules changes for the 1st semester of the 2019-2020 school year will be due within the ten day schedule change window in June.
Curriculum Options • CCP Students who are taking classes at the campus or online– We will work on your schedules through out the remainder of the year. It is important that you have lots of conversations with me regarding your course selection. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO TELL ME WHAT YOU ARE TAKING! If you are taking a CCP course here in the building, please pick up a schedule change form and make the necessary changes. • JOLT students – if you are interested in enrolling in JOLT classes that registration window is open from today until April 1st for summer and fall semesters. No applications will be accepted after April 1st for the summer and fall semesters. • This does not pertain to your students yet, however, I would like you to be aware of how credit recovery works at the high school: • Credit Recovery students- If you failed a core class (English, Math, Science, Social Studies) you have two options to make up this course. • Option One – enroll in JOLT to complete failed core course today and complete it by May 26th. • Option Two – enroll in JOLT to complete failed core course over the summer • Summer school is mandatory for all students – 2 hours of lab time, per ½ credit failed, is required for all students until courses are completed and passed. Failure to recover any failed course will result in be ineligible to participate in sports, band, choir, chorale, apogee, field trips, and dances.
Scheduling Electives Today • You will need to select 0-6 credit courses • Do your best to select courses you would interested in taking. • I have already loaded you in Band, Choir, and Agri-Science.
