On Line Course Selection is now complete. ALL students should have selected their courses for next year's roster before now. Changes to these selections will be considered in August during Course Changes week. Instructions with dates, times, and procedures will be sent with rosters before the second week of August.
* Note: Course 460-01 Home Science is overloaded and is now effectively a senior course. Juniors who selected this elective will be given an alternate elective course. This course is not one of the three science courses required for graduation.

We expect to be able to go 'live' with GradeConnect online course selection on Tuesday, Feb. 23, after the Course Exception schedule for Freshmen and Sophomores takes place. At that time, students will be able to go into their accounts in GradeConnect, click the tab for Course Selection, and choose the six courses that they will take next year.
On Tuesday after school, students are encouraged to visit GradeConnect with their parents to select their courses, sign and return the printed course selection form from GradeConnect and any course exception forms stapled together, to their homeroom teachers on Monday, March 1. On Tuesday, March 2 all of the course selections papers will be returned to the Main Office and the Course selection process will be finished. Note: use the PRINT button on the GradeConnect Course Selection sheet for best results.
