On Wednesday, November 24 students received instructions from the Program Office on the start of Spring '22 programming for elective and selectives. which will begin on November 29, 2021 at 4pm with seniors and have a staggered schedule.
Please review the following instructions and key information to request and/or apply for elective/selectives for the 2021-2022 Spring semester. This process is intended for you to make requested elective selections using the preference form, which then allows our Program Office to determine preliminary schedules for the entire school. Please note, this is a preference form only. No request is binding and no student is guaranteed a seat in a course. While we try to honor requests,an approval to apply for a course does not signify you have been granted a seat in the course/class. Approval to apply for a course signifies you may request a seat—NOTE: Final seat assignments are pending based on space, course availability, and Administration oversight.
This document contains instructions (with screenshots) and an FAQ which we will be updating regularly. Please take the time to review the document and FAQ regularly. Also, please review the important reminders below:
DIRECTIONS:
You should see three tabs: Dashboard; Grades; and Graduation Requirements.
Dashboard is an overview and contains your current choices, your schedule, and your course applications (see below).
Grades tab has your transcript data and is used to determine your eligibility to select certain courses.
Graduation Requirements tab contains a table — red represents “not fulfilled”, yellow represents “in progress”, and green indicates “fulfilled”. The “Course Selection Form” button will provide a form for you to select the AP courses you are eligible to apply for and request.
Please consult the course eligibility rule, found by searching the course on the course list (located in the menu on the left) if you do not see a course you may be eligible to take.
IMPORTANT: If you do not qualify to request a course, but wish to apply, please find the section labeled “Course Applications” on the Graduation Requirements page and click create. This will prompt you to select a course, as well as enter the reason you would like to be considered for the course. The Department Chair and counselors will review your application and consult with teachers. If approved to apply, this will grant you the ability to request the course. Please note this is only permission to apply for the course. does not signify you have have been granted a seat in the course/class. Approval to apply for a course signifies you may request a seat. Final seat assignments are pending based on space, course availability, and Administration oversight.
Again, please note, this is a preference form only. No request is binding and no student is guaranteed a seat in a course. Seniors are prioritized for courses to meet graduation requirements.
