Welcome Jags and Future Jags!

The link below will take you to a guide for Choice Sheets / Course Selection.  There is important information, reminders and tools for course selection.  Counselors will be visiting 8th graders at their school.  Current Jags  will be visited during  English or SS class to assist students in choosing courses for next year.  You will be able to schedule your courses AFTER the counseling presentation.  It would be helpful for you to check out the guide BEFORE the presentation. 

 Current 9th - 11th grade students will view the “How do I know if I’m on track to graduate? Credit Check” slideshow  and use the Credit Check sheet during advisory with their teacher in preparation for their counselor visit.  (Not applicable to current 8th graders.)

The schedule for Counselor visits is below but will be altered as needed.  

8th grade presentations:  Jan. 27-Feb. 10

11th grade presentations:  Feb. 3-Feb. 14

10th grade presentations:  Feb. 17-Feb. 28
