Hello students and parents. Course requests for next school year will be accessible for students in their Aeries portal beginning tomorrow Wednesday January twenty second.

They determine how many sections of certain classes will be offered next school year and are critical when it comes to finalizing class schedules and making sure students get a space in the classes they want. Course requests are not class schedules. We make every effort to give students their first choice course requests on their final schedules but it is not guaranteed. Students will have until Friday February twenty first to edit, review, and finalize their requests. Most students will participate in a Counselor led classroom lesson starting tomorrow and will be aware of what they need to do. Please speak with your student about their course requests for next school year.
