Specific Course Selection Information
All core academic teachers (Math, Science, English, Social Studies, and World Languages) will be having conversations with students and making course placement recommendations. These recommendations are shared with Counselors.
Counselors will review these recommendations with students during their registration meetings, discuss elective offerings, and provide a draft of selected courses for students to review with their families.
Families are encouraged to review the draft of courses and to contact their student’s Counselor with any questions or concerns. Parents and students can access the courses they have requested through PowerSchool (instructions linked HERE).
Students will have time to think about their decisions and can change their mind up until the deadline. If a family wishes to override a placement recommendation in a core academic course, they should first contact the appropriate Instructional Director to discuss. If they want to proceed, a Course Override form must be submitted to the Instructional Director.
The deadline for selecting courses is Thursday, March 3rd @ 3:00 PM. If you have any questions regarding registration, please contact Gail Moesta 847-582-7388, gmoesta@lfschools.net, or your student’s Counselor.
