From April 26-29, students in grades 9-11 will have another opportunity to reflect on their initial slate of course requests and request any final adjustments in order to craft a combination of classes that provides an appropriate level of challenge and fosters their sense of personal balance.
By Friday, April 29, every student in grades 9-11 and at least one parent/guardian should complete the Final Course Request Confirmation Form in mySchoolApp (click the yellow banner, see complete instructions below). Before completing the form, students are encouraged to have conversations with their teachers, advisor or Mr. Dow if they have any further questions about their course planning.
Students should make sure that they have 5.0 to 6.0 academic credits and at most 7.0 total credits scheduled within the school day. After completing the initial steps in March, students will not have direct access to adjust their course requests in mySchoolApp. Instead, they should request further changes in the comments box on their Final Course Request Confirmation Form or by contacting Mr. Dow in person or by email (dowc@columbusacademy.org).
Please note that all requests and appeals from the initial form in March have already been recorded, but students and their families may use the comments section again to share any further details or make additional appeals or requests.
After the master schedule for the Upper School is built in May and June, students and families will receive an update in mid-July with the list of their scheduled classes so that textbooks and other required materials can be purchased in August.
If any scheduling conflicts arise, these will be addressed via email or Zoom appointments during the summer in order to establish all students’ schedules before the new school year begins.
During student orientation in August, students will receive access to their schedules with block and teacher information.
If parents have any questions about course planning, please contact your child’s advisor or Mr. Dow (dowc@columbusacademy.org). Thank you!
Last Step: Complete Final Course Request Confirmation Form by Friday, April 29
- Students and at least one parent/guardian should click the “1 Form(s) to Review” to access the online form. If Course Requests are not visible on your homescreen, log out of mySchoolApp and log back in to access all of the functions in Course Requests.
