Dear Students and Parents, Hinsdale Central High School is a wonderful place to be a student where your academic course work prepares you to reach your future goals. Registering for next year’s courses is a part of that experience. The 2012-2013 edition of the Hinsdale Central Program of Studies book is an important resource for students and parents which we hope will assist you in making good course choices. As you page through the Program of Studies, you will find that the book is divided into three distinct sections. The first contains general information about such topics as graduation requirements, dropping and adding courses, schedule changes, and college admission requirements. The second section provides descriptions of all course options available to students. The last section provides students and parents with registration information for next year, worksheets for course selection, the four-year plan, and the graduation credit checklist. We suggest that you view the registration process in the broad scope of a four-year plan as you reflect on your personal strengths, interests and future plans. Parents, teachers, and your counselor will guide you through this process. We encourage you to make careful consideration of the opportunities available to you so that you are able to make the best use of the academic opportunities available to you. You should use this Program of Studies book to prepare for your registration appointment with your Guidance Counselor. These will be scheduled in January or early February. As you prepare, carefully review the general information section, analyze the course descriptions and “pencil in” your choices on the worksheets at the back of this handbook. It is important to know that the courses you select during this process are intended to be your final selections for the 2012-2013 school year. We develop our master schedule of classes and we hire and re-employ teachers based on the enrollment decisions you make. As high school students, you should make careful decisions and then follow through with them. Hopefully you will find our registration process one that works well for you. If you have questions or suggestions, please see your counselor. Sincerely,
Michael McGrory Principal
