PLANNING YOUR EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM
________________________________________________________________

1. A student’s program should be determined on the basis of previous performance in the subject area
selected, various related test results, career and/or educational goals, teacher recommendations,
parental permission, and the approval of the counselor.

2. All students must register for thirty at least (30) credits per academic year, however it is recommended
that thirty-five (35) credits be taken.

3. Students selecting courses requiring departmental approval assume the responsibility of obtaining
such approval prior to scheduling online.

4. Elective courses have limits on the number of students who may be accommodated. The screening
of student requests will be made by the various departments and/or the school counseling
department. When a course is oversubscribed, priority for enrollment is most often by seniority.
5. Electives chosen online are tentative until all academic prerequisites have been met.
