5. LAST WORDS Carefully choose your classes – courses and levels
Listen to your teachers regarding level choice recommendations
Level changes do not begin until week 4 of the new school year. Students are expected to seek support from their teachers prior to a level change.
Students experiencing success (maintaining a C or better) should remain in the class for the semester.
It is okay to take honors in one class and not another
Discuss choosing the correct level and the slim chance of getting it changed.
Classes they take for HS credit in MS—if student does not pass BOTH semesters of a course for HS credit neither semester will be in student’s course history. It is all or nothing.
Not attending DHS next year—still submit a course selection sheet!

6. What happens if you don’t submit a course selection sheet?
Your counselor will choose all courses for you with NO option to change at a later date for ANY reason. You will be disappointed when you are taking classes that you did not choose yourself.
If you care about your courses, submit the course selection and verification sheets during your lunch anytime between February 6th-22nd. The due date is February 22nd.
