I hope everyone had a relaxing Thanksgiving Break. Please make sure students are focused in the two weeks we have before Winter Break. Today students are receiving second semester registration forms in their English classes. Yearlong classes will already be listed on this form but students will be required to pick their electives for next semester. Teachers will be advising students this week if they feel students should level down to a less rigorous course at the semester. Please discuss your child’s second semester schedule with them and make sure you sign their registration form. Students will turn these forms into their English teacher on Monday Dec. 8. Academic advisors are available all week for students and parents. Students can either stop into the guidance office and sign up to be called in or come to the library this Thursday and Friday during lunch where all the academic advisors will be available to answer questions. If parents have questions they can either email your child’s academic advisor or call for an appointment. Academic advisor emails and phone numbers can be found at www.alisoniguel.com/advisement/contact_us.html
Please realize that student’s schedules, regarding both periods and teachers of yearlong classes, might change for second semester. We will do our best to minimize these changes but there are some adjustments to the schedule that are unavoidable. Remember, zero period is not guaranteed even if a student has a zero period during the current semester. Please do not count on current carpools or work scheudules until second semester schedules are released. We will try and release these scheudules during that last week of January.
Students who fail to turn in their registration forms by Friday, December 12th will lose all priority for elective choices and zero period and will not be allowed to make schedule changes once the semester starts. Please make sure students turn their forms in on time to have the best chance of getting their requested courses.
Thanks,
Ken Ezratty
Assistant Principal, Guidance
