Schedule Change Process
The deadline for all course request changes is late April/early May. We do the best we can to consider changes when looking at the school as a whole, class sizes, potential enrollments, and staffing, to best support student achievement.
***Please note that The Briar Woods Staff does not accommodate requests for teacher changes.
Please keep the following considerations in mind:
Requests for specific teachers or class periods will not be considered.
Schedule changes may not be possible if the course is considered full and seats are not available.
Schedule changes may require multiple class and teacher changes to the students current schedule.
Music classes may be subject to change as our music instructors complete auditions.
All students who are scheduled for Health & PE 10 will also be placed in classroom Drivers Education. These courses must be taken simultaneously.
Course requests for students with Individual Education Plans may change as their IEP meetings are completed.
Counselors will review graduation requirements and progress before schedule changes are considered.
If a schedule change is approved, the student is responsible for any missed work that the new teacher deems necessary.
If dropped during the school year, all grades in the current course will transfer to the new course.
A request for a schedule change does not guarantee that a change will be made.
All schedule changes are final and cannot be reversed.
Please review the chart below for an explanation of grading implications of dropped courses.
