If a waiver is signed, the student may not withdraw from the class without penalty.

Students should choose alternates in case there are conflicts or the course is not offered.

All Seniors must be enrolled in a math class, English Class, science class, and Gov. & Econ.
Only seniors are allowed to sign up for Early Release, Late Arrival, and Senior Prep.
Note: Parental permission is required. See your counselor for the appropriate form that must be on file before scheduling these courses.
All seniors must be enrolled in the equivalent of at least 2 block classes each semester to be considered a student at BHS. This does not include virtual classes, non-credited classes, or work-based learning classes.

7. Meeting with Counselor
During your appointment with your counselor, the counselor will review your requests to make sure that you have included the necessary requirements to keep you on track for graduation as well as help you get into the college of your choice.
You will also review your IGP at that time

8. Building the Master Schedule
The Master Schedule is built based on the student requests. Therefore, it is extremely important that you request the classes that you intend to take.
A course may not be offered if enough students do not request it.
You are not guaranteed a course because you requested it. Counselors will make sure that you have what you need for graduation. Upper classmen will have first priority for courses needed for graduation.

9. Scheduling Students
In scheduling students, the computer will give us the conflicts that may occur based on your requests.
The courses are placed based on the least number of conflicts. It is close to impossible for no conflicts to occur.
Students/parents may not choose teachers. We do not change schedules based on teacher requests.

10. Distributing Schedules
Schedules will be distributed during orientation. Dates and times will be mailed during the summer.
