Secondary Course Selection Process
During Pride and Advisory, the Counseling Department is working with students to help them learn more about the course selection process. During this time, students are presented with their options in which classes they can participate in next fall.
The week of February 20, students will register for their classes. All information about course selection will be posted on their counseling Google Classroom (or their Pride Time Google Classroom if in grade 8). We encourage families to reach out and connect with their students about the courses they are thinking about taking. Counselors are available during Student-Led conferences if you would like to schedule a meeting.
