Trimester 2 Begins Monday, November 18, 2024
Please be sure to have your student check their trimester 2 schedule in Synergy/Student VUE on Sunday, November 17th after 5pm.
Some student schedules may have been changed for the following reasons:
- Student needs to repeat a course they earned a D or F in.
- Class size balancing.
- Changes to when classes are offered in the master schedule.
Students can meet with their counselor during the period they have the issue. (For example: During period 3 if no period 3 class) for the following issues:
- Missing a period in their schedule
- Wrong class level
- In a class you've already taken
- Seniors missing a graduation requirement
All other change requests (PE choice, electives etc.) should be made on this form
We are looking forward to a great Trimester 2 with your Sundevils!!
