REGISTRATION
When registering for classes, students must consider graduation requirements, college requirements, personal interests, and prior academic performance. In the freshmen year, most course requirements and levels are selected for the student based upon their STS placement test scores, ISTEP test scores (or other state standardized test), and information received from their grade schools.

Students are to register for seven courses and three alternates each semester. Freshmen accepted on appeal will be required to register for six courses and enroll in the Guided Study course.

In the freshmen year, students will develop with their counselor a four-year plan of study. It is vital to understand that this plan can be changed as grades, college choice, career plans, and personal interests change. Counselors will meet with each class early in the spring to explain the registration process. Students are responsible for the selection of their courses but should always seek the advice of their counselor, parents, and teachers. Al l course level assignments will be made by the teachers and department chairpersons. Counselors will review the course selections to ensure the student is fulfilling all graduation requirements.

Before registration can be finalized, a student must have a completed course selection form with all courses, course numbers, three alternate courses, department approval signatures, and parent signatures, along with the registration fee. This fee is not included in the tuition costs, and a late fee may be imposed.

After the final grades have been assigned for the spring semester, department chairpersons may again review the student's selections and make course level adjustments based on grades and prerequisites for the courses. Parents and students will be notified of any changes.

Every attempt is made to meet all course requests of the student; however, in some situations conflicts occur and it is necessary for the scheduler to select an alternate course from the student's course selection sheet. This is the reason all students must select three different alternate courses when finalizing their course selections.

The classroom teacher, once the school year begins, will be the only one to initiate course or course level changes. Parent or student course changes are very rare. This type of change requires a parent/counselor/ student conference, a fee, and may require a meeting with the principal to clarify issues that may be of concern. The reason for this policy is that prior to the beginning of classes there would be a great deal of individual assistance and students and parents would be offered the opportunity to make changes prior to July 1 of the coming school year.
