Scheduling Dates February 12th & 13th- Mrs. Oakes, Mr. Rush, & Mr. Fulton February 19th & 20th- Mr. Faella & Ms. Merkle February 21st & 24th- Ms. Chasteen & Mr. Baker February 25th & 26th- Mr. Kendle & Mr. Greenstine February 27th & 28th- Mr. Keller & Mr. Tanner March 3rd & 4th- Mrs. Harvie & Mr. Tanner March 6th & 7th- Mr. Timpson March 10th & 11th- Ms. Clevenstine March 12th & 17th- Ms. Wynn March 18th & 19th- Mr. Bear & Mrs. Conti March 20th & 21st- Mr. Hoffman March 24th- Students without English or Social Studies

The Scheduling Process Parents/Guardians and students will begin to view their course selections in the Home Access Center Please review course selections in HAC to make sure all courses were entered correctly Students will have until March 31 st to make changes to their course selections

Course Selection Process ~Determining Courses Example 1 If 146 students request the course Food Prep and Production I it may be determined that 6 sections will be offered with a maximum of 25 students per section. Once students are scheduled, there is little flexibility for other students to change their mind and request that course. Since the maximum number of students is set to 25 per class, only 4 students should be granted a schedule change if it fit their current schedule.

Course Selection Process ~Determining Courses Example students select English 10 CP and 120 select English 10 Honors. It is determined that there will be 9 sections of CP and 5 sections of Honors with a maximum of 25 students in each class. Once students are scheduled, there is little flexibility for other students to change their mind and request that course. Since the maximum number of students is set to 25 per class, then only 6 students who request to move from Honors to CP should be granted a schedule change if it fits their current schedule.

Course Selection Choose your courses wisely Talk to your current teachers – What level do they recommend for you? Talk to your parents/guardians – What do they recommend and support? Talk to your counselors – What do they advise for you? Remember: course request changes will not be made after March 31st
