Course Selection for 2024 - 2025

Course Selection for next year involves some very important decisions for students!  The courses you choose will determine how you spend your time in school next year, and influence your options for post-secondary!

 

Guidance counselors will be meeting with students during classes in February and March to assist them with course selections for next year.  Students can also drop into the Guidance Office during lunch any day from February 26 – March 1 to get additional help with their course selections.

 

Deadlines?  Course selections are due March 1, 2024, for next year.  After this date you will need to contact the Guidance Office to enter or change your course selections.
