Schedule Change Requests
 
PowerSchool is now open to families. Please use the following form if you have an error in your schedule that needs to be corrected.  Please complete the form ONLY if you are requesting a schedule change for one of the indicated reasons in the drop-down menu. Please do NOT email the individual counselors or complete the form multiple times. Reviewing an email in addition to the Google Form response delays the process. Reviewing multiple Google Form entries from the same student will also delay the process. Thank you!

 

Make-Up Senior Portraits for the Yearbook will be taken in the Art Gallery on September 4th, 5th and 6th. This will be the final opportunity to take Senior Portraits for the Yearbook ON CAMPUS.  After this date, any student who still wishes to take a portrait will need to schedule that session individually with Prestige Portraits. 

If these portraits are not received by the Yearbook staff by October, we cannot guarantee that they will make it in the yearbook.

Students who would like to schedule/reschedule/check their appointment time should speak to a Prestige Portraits representative in the Art Gallery on September 4th, 5th and 6th.
