Rising 10Th Grade Registration Worksheet for Byrnes High School

Rising 10th Grade Registration Worksheet for Byrnes High School

Notes to Parents/Guardians:  Students will be required to take 8 courses. Teachers will recommend students for the sequential core courses, allowing students to choose electives to complete the rest of their schedule.  Please discuss elective choices with your student. Course descriptions and prerequisites may be reviewed in the BHS Course Directory which all students have received. The directory is also available online.  On February 8, 9, or 10 students will select their classes online in a group meeting with a school counselor.  Parents/Guardians will have FINAL approval of all courses. During February, March, and possibly April each student and his/her parent(s) will have an Individual Graduation Plan (IGP) appointment with a BFA counselor to finalize course selections for the upcoming school year as well as review career and post-secondary plans. Appointment times will be mailed.  This worksheet is designed to help students and parents prepare for the online session and IGP meeting.  Students should mark the electives on the back this sheet that they would like to take in 10th grade.  Students should also write down 2 alternate electives for BFA and (if RD Anderson courses have been selected) 2 alternate electives for RD Anderson.  Please sign the bottom of this sheet indicating that you have discussed the courses with your student.
