High School Course Selection Begins
The time has come for our 9th-11th graders to begin the course selection process for the 2024-2025 Academic year.
Thinking about future classes can be both exciting and overwhelming. Please know that Ms. Poss and Mrs. Bowman are available to walk students through each step.
Below is an overview of the scheduling process. Attached here is some other information that may be of use as students begin this journey. Also, on the portal (“Groups” > “High School” > “Downloads”) you will find a catalog of course offerings. This catalog will provide a description of specific courses, as well as outline any prerequisites.
We are excited to test a new “paperless” registration process. This year, students will be able to view teacher recommendations and request courses directly through the Paladin Portal!
