High School Academic Programs & Pathways Guide

It is the responsibility of each student to see that requirements for graduation, college articulation, and athletic eligibility are met. Counselors will review all junior and senior transcripts in the fall to verify that each student is on track for graduation.

Please use this Graduation Check-List to assist in tracking your progress toward graduation.

Important Details to Note About Schedule Changes

• Schedule change requests cannot be guaranteed; many classes are at the maximum capacity and class sections are only offered during certain times of the day, which limits the number of schedule changes that are possible
• While a student is waiting to find out if their schedule change request is possible, they must follow their current schedule exactly as it is
• Students may click here to view our school district's Course Offerings 
• Students are encouraged to use the 4-Year Academic Plan Document to develop their long-term academic goals and pathway 

Instructions & Policies Regarding Schedule Changes

A completed schedule change form (with parent/guardian approval) is required for ALL requests; emails alone will not be accepted. 

School counselors will only be working on correcting significant errors on schedules leading up to the first day of school (significant schedule errors = a student has a gap in their schedule with no assigned class, there is a duplicate class, a senior is missing a graduation requirement, etc.). A student changing their mind about a class they want to take is not considered a significant error. 

Starting on the first day of school, counselors will begin processing Schedule Change Request Forms for students who have changed their mind about their course selections. 

Please find the link to the schedule change form posted below.

                                                 Schedule Change Request Form 

When Will I Find Out If My Schedule Change Request Is Possible? 

All submitted forms will be reviewed in the order that they are received. However, priority will be given to schedules that contain errors. Due to high volumes, please allow extra time for your counselor to respond/process your schedule change request.

Work permits are required in the State of Ohio for minors under the age of 18 who have not graduated from high school. A new work permit is required every time you change employers.

Step 1: Obtain and Complete the Application

Request the official Minor Work Permit Application Form from the Student Services office

During the summer months, please contact the main office line/building secretary during the summer to obtain your work permit application. Note, processing times may be longer.

The application requires completion and signatures from four parties:

1. The Student: Complete the Student/Applicant Information section
2. The Parent/Guardian: Ask your parent/guardian to sign where indicated. 
   • Note: If the residency documents on file are not current, the school will request current proofs of residency prior to completing.
3. The Employer: Ask your employer to complete the Pledge of Employer section, including the Employer's Tax ID Number (9 digits), and enter actual numbers for the number of days, hours, starting time, and quitting time.
   • The number of days per week, hours per day, starting time, and quitting time must be actual hours and times (numbers). Even if your hours and days will vary, a number must be entered.
   • We will not accept the words “varies” or “representative”. If you submit an application without specific days and times, it will be returned to you.
4. The Physician: Ask your physician to complete the Physician's Certificate for Minor Work Permit, including signature and office stamp with phone number.
   • If you have a current physical (defined as being within the last 365 days) on file at the school, you may use that in lieu of a Physician's Certificate.
   • It is your responsibility to get your physical from Final Forms or from the athletic department 

Step 2: Submitting Required Documentation

Once the application is completed by the student, the student must bring it back to the Student Services office with the following documentation included:

1. Completed and Signed Application Form (all four sections)
2. Physician's Certificate or Current Physical 
3. Proof of Age: An original or copy of a Birth Certificate, Passport, Baptismal Record, Hospital Birth Registration, or Driver's License

Step 3: Picking up the Processed Work Permit

1. The current processing time is 24-48 business hours after submission. The school will contact the student when the permit is ready.
2. The student must be present to pick up the final work permit as their signature is required. The school designee will countersign the permit at that time, and a copy will be kept in the Student Services office.
