SCHEDULING for rising seniors will begin in March. The rising juniors will be scheduled after the seniors and finally the rising sophomores. Mrs. Nicholson will meet with the students and explain graduation requirements, minimum admissions requirements, and college-tech prep program requirements. The students will be given a Course Selection Guide that gives a description of every course offered at HHS. Students will sign up for a conference time. Parents are welcome to come to the conference, but do not have to attend. Students and parents should discuss course preferences and may want to have alternatives-just in case. After the conference and scheduling, the schedule sheet must be signed by a parent or guardian.
