Attention ALL students! You need to take a look at your Semester 2-Term 1 classes to see if everything looks okay.
Here are some things to look for:
- Do you have an open block? If you are in grades 9-10-11, you are required to have a full schedule.
- Do you have a class scheduled and did not pass the pre-requisite? For example: if Algebra II is on your schedule, you should have already passed Geometry. If not, you may need to request a different class for next term.
- Is there an error on your schedule? For example: are you signed up for a class that you already passed?
For the next few school days we will have Schedule Change Week till November 30th. You can pick up a Schedule Change Request Form in the guidance office. Fill out this form completely and give it to Ms. Elskamp in the Guidance Office. She will give it to your counselor. It is imperative that you make this request during these five days!
Please remember: This is only a request and we can not guarantee that a change can or will be made. However, it is the only opportunity to make any changes for Semester 2-Term 1.
The Eyas, West High’s magazine of literature and art, is open for business again for the 2009-2010 year. We are looking for student writing and art from all classes. Submit your entries to a language arts or world language teacher, or bring them to Room 203. The deadline is the end of the semester.
