Current juniors (Class of 2026) may be granted the privilege to have a 6-period schedule vs. a 7-period schedule for senior year. Here are the guidelines for a reduced schedule request:
CURRENT JUNIORS (CLASS OF 2026 )
- Must have a minimum of 6 classes
- 6 classes cannot include Pass/Fail courses (Work Study, TA, etc.)
- Must choose between open 1st period or open 7th period
STUDENTS:
- Must be on track for high school graduation
- Seniors with a reduced schedule shall not be on campus during their open period. You are required to arrive 5 minutes early before 2nd period OR leave 5 minutes after 6th period.
- College admissions considerations: Many highly selective colleges recommend that students take a full schedule to be considered a competitive applicant. It is the student's responsibility to research and communicate with the college(s) to ensure a reduced schedule will not impact admission decision(s).
This form does not automatically grant you a reduced schedule. You will receive a follow-up email where your parent/guardian will be REQUIRED to respond in order to acknowledge all of the guidelines. After we receive the email from your parent/guardian, your request will be reviewed by your counselor.
