For the 2024-2025 school year, schedule change requests were made using an online form between 8/7-8/14. A second opportunity for T2 and T3 changes will be Monday, November 11th to Friday, November 15th prior to the end of the first trimester. At this point we are only changing schedules for emergencies such as not having enough credits for graduation.

Schedules will NOT be changed for the following reasons:

• Rearrange classes within their schedules

• Request teacher or class period changes

• Change electives that were selected during the registration process
  

• Request a study hall or condensed day during a specific period
  

  
  

Course changes will be approved on a space in class available basis for limited reasons:

• A failed prerequisite course (including senior credit needed for graduation)
  

• Change in IEP or 504 Plan
  

• Health Plan
  

• PSEO
  

  
  

Families of students with IEPs should contact their case manager with questions regarding schedule change requests.

Don't hesitate to set up a meeting with your counselor to talk more about your college applications!

The Common Application is a single online college application used by over 1,000 colleges and universities. Instead of filling out the same general information for each application students only do it once. However, each institution has some individual requirements and students need to work with their counselor. All Seniors planning to use the Common Application when applying for college are required to attend the Common Application Workshop on 9/17 from 10:30 to 1:00pm.

RHS College & Military visits will begin starting the week of September 11th.
