Why did my child not receive all courses requested? Based on the availability, it may not fit with the courses requested. How do you choose an alternate course in case a first choice isn’t available? An alternate selection sheet will be handed out as a last step in the process. Can a parent override teacher recommendations? Yes If my student took Spanish in middle school, which high school class should he or she take? Begin with level I and middle school teacher will make final recommendation at the end of the year. Can students take classes at the 11/12 building? At this time, transition will be limited to facilities required for the course (i.e. – Band)
Please visit our AFJROTC room 114 to meet with representatives and learn more about the program!
