A reminder regarding the upcoming opportunities for parents and students to gain a better understanding of course offerings as you finalize course requests for the 2017-2018 school year:
Thursday, Feb. 2nd--9:00 a.m.
Cooper HS Field Trip for all incoming freshman. We are coordinating this with all of our feeder middle schools (Gray, Ockerman and Camp Ernst). Your child will spend approximately 90 minutes in the Cooper auditorium for an orientation of scheduling classes. They will be transported via school buses to Cooper. Students will receive a Course
Guide and a Course Request Sheet during this time. (This was originally scheduled for last Friday, 1/27. Due inclement weather it was delayed to this week).
Thursday, Feb. 2nd--6:30 p.m.
Parent Information Night for our incoming freshman parents. This begins @ 6:30 p.m. in our auditorium. We will have content area teachers available after the meeting to answer any specific questions you may have. Plan on spending about 90 minutes with us; 60 minutes for the meeting and 30 minutes for specific questions with content area teachers.
Wed., Feb. 15th and Thurs., Feb. 16th:
We have set aside parent conferences on both of these dates, in the evening, so we can provide one-on-one mentoring and advising to finalize your child's schedule. The 15-minute parent conference
is designed to answer any further questions you have and to give one final look over what courses you, your child and teachers are requesting for next school. If there is a course the teacher is requesting your child to take that you feel is not the best fit, we will have a challenge form for parents to fill out and sign.
Parents will sign off on the course request at the end of the parent conference on either
Feb. 15th or 16th.
By now everyone should have been contacted by one of our teachers using Sign-Up Genius. If you haven't received an email to choose the day and time that works best for you, please check your spam, junk and clutter files. If it isn't in either of these, contact our office (859.384.5040) and we will resolve this for you.
On Feb. 15th the time frame is from 3:00-6:30 and on Feb. 16th the time frame is from 4:00-
7:30 p.m.
I look forward to seeing you at the upcoming events!
