[BHS Etree] ADMIN: BHS Course Drop/Add Policy

[BHS Etree]

Please do not reply to this email. If you have questions, please contact your student's counselor

Greetings students and parents,

Starting today, the initial Schedule Change Request form will no longer be available. Students seeking to drop/add a class must now follow the policy outlined below. (If you have already completed the Schedule Change Request form, please be patient; counselors will continue to update schedules based on previously submitted requests.) 

BHS POLICY REGARDING SCHEDULE CHANGES
Any requests for schedule changes must be made during registration week. A change request is only accepted if the school has made a mistake or a student has been assigned the wrong level.  Most courses are year-long, and students must select all of their courses prior to the start of the school year.  They may not change courses mid-year. Students are not allowed to have gaps in their schedules. They must continue to attend the courses that appear on their schedule in Illuminate until an official course change has been made and they are given a new schedule in Illuminate. Students who do not receive an official schedule change before attempting to attend a new class risk invalidation of an approved change and may receive a failing grade in a course.

WITHDRAWAL POLICY:
Students may apply to withdraw from a course up until the end of Term 1 for classes in periods 1, 3, 5, or 7 and up until the end of Term 2 for classes in periods 0, 2, 4, or 6.

BHS MAY OR MAY NOT BE ABLE TO HONOR YOUR REQUEST. 

Drops within the first 2 weeks of Term 1 or Term 2 will not appear on the permanent record.  After the first two weeks, and up until the end of Term 1 or the end of Term 2, the transcript will reflect a “W” (withdrawal) with no credit for the dropped course. A student who drops a course after the end of Term 1 for classes in periods 1, 3, 5, or 7 or after the end of Term 2 for classes in periods 0, 2, 4, or 6 shall receive an “F” grade on their permanent record.

Students must obtain a proctor to replace the dropped course.

Students may not drop an Honors or AP course.


Period 1, 3, 5, 7:     After first 2 weeks of Term 1, Aug 28th = "W"     
                                 After end of Term 1, Sept 11th = "F"  

Period 0, 2, 4, 6:     After first 2 weeks of Term 2, Sept 25th = "W"          
                                 After end of Term 2, Oct 9th = "F"
