Scheduling

“Scheduling” in the Parents Module is all about Next Year Scheduling.

Scheduling choices are for the selected student..

Scroll down to see course recommendations for your student.

The Viewing Next Year Requests, Recommendations and Schedule

screen shows you your student’s course requests for the next school year (e.g. 2018-19 if this year is 2017-18), teacher recommendations, if there are any, as well as their “next year” schedule once one has been created.

There are three things listed on this screen: 1. Your student’s list of course requests for next year. These can be printed out. 2. The teacher a course was recommended by – if there was a teacher recommendation.

Teacher Recommendations will appear at the very bottom of the screen. 3. Your student’s actual schedule for next year. Once the student’s actual schedule for next

year is ready, it will be displayed on this screen as well. This may not happen during the current school year. When the next year schedule is ready, you will be able to print it out as well.

Courses Recommended but Not Requested The very bottom of the Scheduling screen may contain a list of courses that teachers recommended for your student but which they decided not to request and not to take. Scroll down to see this list. This list will only appear if a teacher recommends a course for your student and your student decides not to take the course. The course is then “not requested” so that it will not be scheduled for your student.

The Course Catalog screen lists all the available courses in the subject area – English for example.

Deciphering the Course Catalog Each line in the course catalog provides the following information:

- Course Code – The course number in the school’s catalog. - Course Name or description – The name of the course. - Credits – How many credits is it worth? - Type or level of course (e.g. Honors or AP) - Grades – Which grade levels (e.g. 10th grade) is the course aimed at? - Status – Has this course been recommended for your student? Have they already

requested it? - Priority – A drop down that allows you to select your priority for the course. - Additional Information – A place where you can enter a short note about your choice. - Selector or Message – This either provides you with a “Request this Course” button or the

reason why the student cannot request it. For example, because it is already one of their requests, or they do not have the prerequisites for the course.
