2009 – 2010 Calendar

Course Selection Procedure

THE COURSES OFFERED AT RICHMOND HILL HIGH SCHOOL ARE LISTED BELOW:

Students, in consultation with their parents/guardians, are responsible for selecting their courses for the 2009-2010 school year. Students and parents/guardians should also look at the YORK REGION DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARD OF EDUCATION COURSE CALENDAR at www.yrdsb.edu.on.ca for a detailed description of all courses.

Students should seek advice regarding their selections from their subject teachers and the Guidance Department. Identified students are advised to consult with their Special Education teachers before making their selections. It is also recommended that ESL students speak with ESL teachers to ensure their selections are appropriate for their learning needs.

Students and parents/guardians are encouraged to consider the abilities and interests of the student, prerequisites and diploma requirements, and post-secondary goals when making course selections.

It is important to make these course selections carefully, as these choices will make up the student’s timetable for the 2009-2010 calendar year. Once classes begin in September, students have only one week to make necessary timetable change. However students should be aware that changes may not be possible if courses are full.

Please be aware that courses will be offered only where there is sufficient enrolment to support the program.

Students are expected to take the following number of courses (credits) - 8 courses in Grade 9 - 8 courses in Grade 10 - 8 courses in Grade 11 - 6 courses in Grade 12 (3 each semester)
