A student's placement in a particular class is based upon student work in his/her current class, standardized/state/district test scores, and teacher professional judgment.  

This waiver request is used when parents are in disagreement with the school's recommendation for placement of their child in the course sequence. Prior to submitting this waiver request, parents are asked to speak with their child's current teacher or the Dean of Academics to discuss concerns for placement and gather additional information. This information may help clarify the reasons for the recommended placement. If a parent is still in disagreement with the school's recommendation, this waiver request must be submitted to the Academic Advising Team. Upon submission of this form, every effort will be made to honor the waiver request.

NOTE: Students' course selections determine our course availability for the following school year. The expectation of the district is that if a student chooses a course, they will complete the course. Therefore, waiver requests that are honored require the student to remain in the course selected regardless of his/her performance.
