Programming

Selecting classes for next year

Programming refers to the process of 8th through 11th graders selecting their courses for next year. New this year, "Programming" will be conducted via the "Academic Plan" in the Infinite Campus student and parent portals. Students and parents will select their courses online between January 13-26, 2025. Counselors will then meet with each student over the following weeks in order to ensure proper class selection. After students have confirmed their class selections with their counselor, the deadline for students or guardians to request any changes is June 1.
