How to Use This Catalog

Students are introduced to the course registration process in the Course Registration Fair Assembly and follow-up instruction occurs within Individual Advisories. Students should consult with parents, advisors, teachers, and counselors to make informed decisions about course selection. The ASD faculty can also assist as you select your courses for the next academic year.

Students: Please read the course catalog carefully and explore the available options with your parents. Talk about long-term goals (e.g. learning to play an instrument or learning a new language) when you make your elective and language selections. 

 

Parents: Please listen carefully to your children and help them think through their choices in terms of their goals, ambitions, and interests. Middle school is a great time to explore something new.
