Schedules
Schedules should be finalized and posted by Monday August 18. If your student caught a glimpse of a schedule on their account last week, that was not their final schedule. Students should only refer to schedules posted on or after August 18.
A plea from the counselors: Please discourage your student from attempting to get their schedule re-arranged in order to be with their friends. It is completely understandable that they would want to do this, and this is why they take screenshots of their schedule to post on "Instagram" and other social media outlets - so they can try to match up classes. Unfortunately, custom scheduling almost 900 individual schedules in order to get friends together is quite impossible and we need to focus on academic needs first, keeping class sizes and balance in mind. Each grade level will have lunch together, and that is an important time for friends to connect.
