<strong>2012</strong>-2013 COURSE SELECTION INFORMATION<br />
Marcie Taylor, Assistant Principal<br />
All grade levels have completed the <strong>2012</strong>-2013 course selection process. If your son/daughter has not submitted<br />
course requests for next year, please send him/her to the Counseling Department before <strong>March</strong> 9. Schedules will<br />
be mailed home this summer, along with fee payment information.<br />
Course offerings and the master schedule are based upon requests made during the course selection process. Due<br />
to budget, staffing and facility/room limitations, not all courses will be offered and not all requests can be<br />
honored. For these reasons, it was emphasized numerous times that students must select their courses carefully.<br />
Schedule changes will not be permitted for students who receive courses or alternates they selected during this<br />
process. As always, lunch and teacher changes will not be made.<br />
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the HHS Counseling Department at 480-813-0051 ext. 4020.<br />
You may also review the information provided to students during the course selection process by going to the<br />
