Announcements- Information on Second Semester Schedules:
Students will receive an updated copy of their second semester schedule on the 1st day of day of 2nd semester. Students should report to their 1st semester 1st period class to receive this schedule. They will then report to their new 2nd semester 1st period class. As in years past, due to staffing, the leveling of student numbers in classes and other master schedule issues, a student's schedule may have been adjusted and might be different than the schedule they have previously viewed in PowerSchool. These changes are kept to a minimum if at all possible by administration. There will be no schedule changes processed the week of exams due to a statewide PowerSchool issue that is being corrected. Students should follow the schedule they receive on the 1st day of the 2nd semester. Priority for schedule changes will be for students who have failed classes needed to graduate. Elective and level changes will not be a priority. Students may email their counselor with questions about their schedule. |
