Course Recommendation Period for 2024-25 Open!
Scheduling for the upcoming 2024-2025 school year has begun! As we prepare for the next academic year, I encourage you to have your students discuss suitable classes with their teachers and counselors. It’s important for students to have discussion about their interests, academic goals and future plans with their teachers, as this will help them make informed decisions when choosing their classes. By doing so, they can ensure that they are taking courses that align with their aspirations. In an upcoming meeting, your student will discuss their teacher's recommendations with their counselor and decide which courses they will request for next year. Communication will be sent home with directions for how parents can access those requests and be a part of those decisions with their students. Thank you, and contact your student's counselor if you have questions at any point in the scheduling process.

Potential Couse Section Additions for Spring 2024!
Brockport High School Students and Families,
In an ongoing effort to increase opportunities for our new schedule structure, we are hoping to include additional course sections to student schedules in the second semester of this school year. Please refer to the list of courses below that we are considering offering. These courses are intended to replace a Study Center scheduled for second semester, not to replace a currently scheduled class.
If you would like to request for your child to be added to a potential roster for one of these courses, please contact your child's school counselor as soon as possible. Our counselors will also be visiting Study Centers to garner interest from our students in the coming days. Course sections will only run if we can establish sufficient rosters, so we appreciate you letting us know of your immediate interest.
No School January 15th to Honor Martin Luther King Jr. Day
Food Service
Second Chance Breakfast
As has been communicated in the past, we are grateful to be able to distribute breakfast to all students who would like it when they arrive at school each morning. Students are most ready to learn when they have a good breakfast, and we are happy to provide this opportunity to all students.
Beginning, January 29th, Breakfast service will be available to all students at the times below. This is to support student access to breakfast as they need it and to encourage their attendance in class throughout the day. Please do all you can to encourage your student to get their breakfast when they arrive at school each morning. We are pleased to be able to offer these meals to all of our students, and are grateful for your support in directing them to the cafeteria during these times. Parents can help ensure access by assuring your student is at school and in the building by 7:30am each morning.
Thank you!
