Today’s Objective

Gather information to make an informed decision
about the elective classes you want to take next year.

  1. Visit the tables and talk with student representatives to learn more about the courses you may want to take next year.
  2. Look through this booklet to see which elective courses are available for you to take next year. Things to consider: Is this class open to students in my grade?  Are there prerequisites needed to take this class?  If so, what are they?
  3. Write down at least three elective courses you’d like to take next year on the back cover of this booklet and then take a picture of the back cover so you can enter these course requests into Home Access Center tomorrow during Study Hall.
