Please consider the following when developing your four year plan:
1. In grades 9, 10, and 11 students must schedule 6 credits of coursework. In grade 12, students must schedule 5 credits of coursework.
2. Wisconsin's Early College Credit Program allows public high school juniors and seniors who meet certain Department of Public Instruction requirements to take post secondary courses at a UW institution, a Wisconsin Technical college, one of the state's participating private nonprofit institutions of higher education, or tribally-controlled colleges. Approved courses can count toward high school graduation and college credit. Deadlines must be met. See your counselor for more information.
3. Students who are unable to participate in physical education due to medical reasons must provide a written explanation from their physician to the Physical Education Department Chairperson at the beginning of each school year or at the time that the physical disability occurs. Written medical excuses must be renewed annually by the student's physician. Students with medical excuses must still fulfill the Physical Education Department requirements through non-participation assignments and activities.
4. Before selecting a course offering, check the course description to be sure it fits your needs, interests and abilities. Also check to be sure you have completed the prerequisites for enrollment.
5. Students who fail a semester of a required full year course must complete that semester in summer school or repeat the course the next school year.
6. Plan ahead - not just for next year, but for your entire high school career and future. In this course selection book, we have provided you with a four year planning guide. You may find this helpful in preparing your courses of study while in high school.
7. You must have teacher approval for some courses. Check carefully.
8. If in doubt about credits for graduation and/or college admission requirements, see your counselor before you complete your programming.
