Decision-making is an important part of the course selection process and therefore, offerings should be carefully reviewed in order to select courses that will best meet the needs, interests and goals of each individual student. The school counselor, special education case manager (where applicable), teachers and parents/guardians work together to help students through this process. Administration reserves the right to cancel any course or program offerings when insufficient enrollment warrants. Therefore, not all courses listed in this catalog are guaranteed to run every school year.

The School Board has adopted a nondiscrimination policy. It is the policy of Paramus Public Schools to offer programming designed to provide a free and appropriate public education to each student with a disability in need of accommodations and/or related aids or services, pursuant to federal regulations. The school district recognizes its obligation to take steps to ensure that students with disabilities are identified, evaluated and provided with appropriate educational services. The following district staff have been designated to coordinate compliance with Title IX: Sean Adams, Affirmative Action Officer; Carla Alvarez, Affirmative Action Officer; Tiffany M.
