Dear LTHS Parents/Guardians,
As we embark on the fresh start of a new semester at Lyons Township High School, it is time for our counselors to work with your students in choosing their courses for the 2022-2023 school year. We believe a strong partnership with families and open lines of communication are essential to making the most informed decisions that will lead to your child being enrolled in courses for which they are BOTH passionate AND will help them achieve their post-secondary goals. Please look carefully over the information below as it includes important details, deadlines, and information to assist your family in completing the course registration process over the coming weeks.
All students in grades 9-11 will participate in a group presentation during PE class on January 13th or January 14th. Counselors will share course sequences, selection timelines, necessary prerequisites and much more!
In late January or early February, your student will have a chance to meet with their grade-level counselor to enter final course selections into Infinite Campus. These meetings will take place during English class as teachers will take their classes to meet with counselors to finalize course selection during this time.
Student course requests will be emailed to parents for confirmation the week of February 21st. The final day for students and/or families to change their course selections is Monday, February 28, at 12:00pm.
In preparation for this process, we hope that you and your student will continue to discuss their academic experience at Lyons Township High School, as well as how the plethora of elective courses can compliment their experience by providing fulfilling and career-related opportunities. Our goal is to help each student individualize their LTHS experience to best suit their post-secondary objectives. There is not one “right way” to go through our high school; we hope your student takes the time to explore what paths are most appropriate given their academic strengths, areas of interest, and post-secondary goals. Please contact your student’s counselor to discuss opportunities or ask questions and help you make the most informed decision for your child’s schedule.
We are LT!
