CONNECT, which is scheduled for forty minutes during block 3 all year, provides opportunities for academic tutoring, enrichment, study groups, group projects and clubs. </p><p>Carefully check your classes for both semesters. As you go over your schedule, remember that your program should reflect your academic recommendations as well as elective choices that you made during the spring registration period. Keep in mind that your alternate selections may have been scheduled if your first choice selections were unavailable. Graduation requirements take precedence over all other options. Make sure that you are scheduled in the appropriate academic level and that you have met prerequisite requirements (e.g., Spanish I before Spanish II).</p><p>Schedule Change Request Procedure Please read this entire sheet and follow all steps outlined below:</p><p>1.
