8th Grade Scheduling for HS
Greetings!
Yes, it's that time of the school year when we begin the scheduling process for next school year! We will have a presentation this coming Monday for your student(s) to highlight choices for their electives. Electives are classes that are not what we consider core classes, such as English, math, science, and social studies.
IMPORTANT - Beginning next Tuesday, we will have your student(s) request courses for the next school year. This is what students refer to as scheduling. You will be able to access their PowerSchool to review their choices and make revisions until 8am on MONDAY, FEBRUARY 27th.
Here are the days each grade level will schedule beginning next week:
- Tuesday (Feb 14) - current 8th graders
- Wednesday (Feb 15) - current 9th graders
- Thursday (Feb 16) - current 10th graders
- Friday/Monday (Feb 17 & 20) - NO SCHOOL
- Tuesday (Feb 21) - current 11th graders
- PLEASE ENSURE YOUR STUDENT IS HERE ON THESE DATES
Please note - We will have a separate scheduling process for any student who is interested in Career Technical Education (CTE) classes that are held at other high schools (off campus) and/or for students who wish to take college classes. This will be in addition to the general scheduling next week. Dates for these sessions are yet to be determined.
Please feel free to review the attachments for course descriptions and sample four year high school plans.

As always, please feel free to reach out to me anytime at gshaffer@ccs.coloma.org or 269-468-2400 ext. 4004 if you have any questions and/or you would like a one-on-one scheduling meeting. I am always more than happy to assist you and your student(s)!
Your Friendly Neighborhood School Counselor!
