Important Information and Helpful Tips

• Review GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS to be sure you are taking all required core classes for your grade level. There is a tool in ClassChoice to help you estimate your graduation progress. However, unfortunately, the ClassChoice graduation progress is not official and may not always be accurate. For your official graduation progress, look in PowerSchool (Grade History > View Graduation Progress), or contact your counselor. 

 

• Link to ClassChoice by logging into PowerSchool on a computer and selecting ClassChoice in the menu on the left hand side or in the top right corner by clicking the arrow to the pop out box. (see linked instructions above for more detailed information)

 

• Make sure ALL the classes you want to change are available BEFORE you change anything. We recommend you sketch out a plan on paper FIRST.  Write down or print out a paper copy of your schedule from ClassChoice, noting and mapping out any changes you may want to make. Then check for class availability in ClassChoice for the new classes you have selected. Use the master schedule to help you map everything out. 

 

• Class changes are live and once you make a change in ClassChoice, it’s done, and there is NO undo. If you drop a class that’s full, you won’t be able to get it back.

 

• If a class is full, it’s FULL, and you won’t be allowed to take it. Counselors can not add you to a full class. 

  

• Be very careful when dropping a class, as other students will be online at the same time looking for classes.  If they choose the class that you just dropped, and the class is full, it will no longer be available to you.  There is NO undo.

 

• Only classes that are available to you will appear.  Classes that are full, have unmet prerequisites, or are not offered to your grade level will NOT be available to you. If you haven't yet dropped the class you are looking to reschedule, it will not show up in the period it's supposed to be offered for you until it's dropped from its current place in your schedule. You must drop the class first, as it will not allow you to have the same class on your schedule twice. After dropping the course you should see it as a class you can add as long as it's not full or a restricted course that you need special permission to add. 

 

• The SCHS Full Year Master Schedule was built and classes were filled based on the requests the students made during registration last year.  Therefore, many classes are already at capacity and cannot be overfilled.

 

• ALL periods, 1-8, must be filled with classes unless you are a senior. You do not have to fill AM and PM classes. 

 

• Senior free periods will be left open. You do not have to fill AM and PM classes. 

   ​

• Not sure what a course is about, what its prerequisites are, or what grade levels can take it?  Look it up in the SCHS COURSE CATALOG.
