Course Selection Process~Determining Courses

Example 1 If 146 students request the course Food

Prep and Production I it may be determined that 6 sections will be offered with a maximum of 25 students per section.

Once students are scheduled, there is little flexibility for other students to change their mind and request that course. Since the maximum number of students is set to 25 per class, only 4 students should be granted a schedule change if it fit their current schedule.

Page 7: Course Selection 2015-2016 Guidance Counselors Mrs. Parker: 10 th -12 th, A-G Ms. Czajkowski: 10 th -12 th H-P Mrs. McCall: 10 th -12 th, Q-Z Mrs. Statham:

Course Selection Process~Determining Courses

Example 2 219 students select English 10 CP and 120

select English 10 Honors. It is determined that there will be 9 sections of CP and 5 sections of Honors with a maximum of 25 students in each class.

Once students are scheduled, there is little flexibility for other students to change their mind and request that course. Since the maximum number of students is set to 25 per class, then only 6 students who request to move from Honors to CP should be granted a schedule change if it fits their current schedule.
