Each student along with his/her parents, is responsible for selecting courses, which will meet these requirements. Students must complete the minimum number of credits and must also complete seven full semesters of enrollment. It is the responsibility of each student to check his or her own credits. Be sure and check with your counselor each year.
Grade placement and/or pre-requisites must be followed in selecting courses.
If you must DROP OR ADD a class you must see your counselor for a CHANGE OF SCHEDULE FORM. Signatures from the teachers involved, parent and/or guardian and the principal are required on this form. Drops and adds must be done before the semester starts and up to 2 weeks into the semester. After this time the student will receive an E for the semester.
All financial dealings with the school must be paid before going through the commencement ceremony.
Each student, in order to be eligible for graduation, shall have completed a minimum of 7 full semesters of work in grades 9 through 12. Any student planning to graduate after seven semesters to pursue possibilities (I.e. join the service, begin college, work full time) must notify the principal and counselor by DECEMBER 1. Students who do not meet this obligation will not be allowed early graduation. This notification must be in writing from the parent. A student who does not attend classes during the second semester may still participate in the Spring graduation ceremony.
All students must take a minimum of seven classes. Students working as teacher or office aides will receive 1/2 credit per semester upon satisfactory completion of assigned work.
