Welcome back for the 2019-2020 school year.  The first day of school for registered students is Monday, July 22^nd.

*The last day to request course changes or electives was Friday, May 31^st provided space availability and appropriate placement.

*Counselors will focus on resolving scheduling errors and balancing classes during the opening weeks.  Students with mistakes or concerns in their schedules can see their counselor during lunch.  All students must address concerns in person during these times.  Parents, please direct your students to follow the correct process and practice their self-advocacy skills.

*We are unable to honor requests for specific teachers, class periods, and other preferences. Counselors will work to balance class sizes to ensure productive learning environments and to meet teacher contractual limits.  The addition or closure of classes may be necessary with changes in enrollment or staffing.

Please review the Eagle Eye Newsletter for other information regarding important events, SAT and ACT testing, and counseling services.

We look forward to another fantastic year at Olympian High School!
