If a student does not meet the above requirements and still desires to change a class, he/she must meet with the guidance director. A drop/add form will be given to the student to be signed by the teacher(s) of the class(es) to be added and dropped and the student’s parent/guardian. The student’s parent/guardian must also meet with the guidance director and the principal to discuss the desired change. If the guidance director and the principal do not agree with the student and the parent that a change is necessary, the student and parent can appeal the decision to the School Board. All changes for the first semester must be done before school starts in August. All requests for changes for the second semester must be completed and turned in before school ends in December. The student’s parent or guardian must meet with the guidance director and the principal before the beginning of the second semester.
