New Class Offered for 9th Grade Students This Year
NEW Elective this year: We have a new elective this year, but it is for 9th grade only.... Law Enforcement is taught by Detective Knighton, our school resource officer. Students who took the class during 1st semester really enjoyed it! If you are interested in this class, see your counselor. We will waive the class change fee for the first 15 students.
Class Change Requests for 2nd Semester
There have been many requests for 2nd semester class changes. Counselors have been working on the requests so schedules are ready to go when term starts. THE LAST DAY TO MAKE A COURSE CHANGE REQUEST IS THURSDAY, JANUARY 13th. Requests made after the 13th will not be considered.
