Online course registration has concluded. Your child’s school counselor will be meeting with your student individually to review their course selections through March 27th.  

Additional resources can be found on the Scheduling and Course Registration page on the website.

If your child would like to request Alternate PE, Service Learning, or Credit Acceleration, they should plan to meet with their school counselor to discuss their interest. If viable to pursue, a link to the Option II form will be shared. 

Option II Deadlines:

Friday, March 27th, marks the last day for students to make changes to their course requests for the 2026-2027 school year. If your child is unsure of their selections, please have them reach out to their school counselor. The Q3 Academic Update will be sent out on March 24th. With the marking period ending when we return from spring break, students should review this with their families. This is an important time for students to reach out to their teachers if they have any concerns about their grades. If needed, students can also request a meeting with their school counselor using their counselor’s booking link.

The School Counseling Department has been offering counseling groups throughout the school year during unit lunch. These groups offer a supportive environment for students to connect with peers, develop skills, and set or work toward personal goals. Students may join at any time; those interested should contact their school counselor directly.

Mental Health Consideration

As parents, we often want to shield our children from pain, distress, or failure, but is this the best way to help our children grow and develop? Failure can often be a good life lesson for our children to learn, even if it's not the easiest path. Check out this article from Newport Academy to get more information.
