Any requests for schedule changes must be made by the parent/guardian in writing during the first 3 school days of each trimester and must be accompanied by an educational reason the change should be made. The principal will have the final decision about granting the schedule change and will consider factors including student conduct, grades, attendance, maximum class sizes, and class composition.
