Each student schedule at West Field High School has been built through the cooperative efforts of student, parents), and counselor. Any students who are new to the district should fill out the following pre registration form to begin the scheduling process.

Prior to the start of school:

Counselors will meet with every senior in August before the first day of school to individually review their schedules. Any juniors or sophomores requesting a change to their existing schedule should begin by completing the following schedule change form.

Counselors will complete any possible changes remotely and communicate the change with the student via email. Counselors will send a scheduling link to a student if their change cannot be accommodated without a meeting. Counselors will send a denial email if the schedule change is not possible or the class is not available.

After the start of school:

Because of the high numbers of students in each class, it may be difficult to accommodate a schedule change. In the event of an unusual and compelling circumstance, a schedule change may be made through counselor appointment and administrative approval by filling out the schedule change application form linked above.

1. The class change application form must be completed first. This process may involve a conference with an administrator, the drop teacher, the student, parents, and a counselor.

2. $10 change fee will apply when:

   1. Student has simply changed their mind about a class

   2. Student is asking for a period or teacher change (teacher changes will only be accommodated if it helps balance out classes)

   3. Student wants to be with friends

3. No fee will be applied when:

1. Students are requesting a level change (AP to regular, regular to honors, etc.)

2. Scheduling errors are made by the computer

4. Student request will be denied when:

1. The class they want is full or unavailable

Schedule changes will be made during designated schedule change days, before school begins or during the first week of the semester.

Teacher-to-teacher switches will not be considered without prior teacher/parent/student interventions and a signed add/drop form.

No schedule changes will be made after midterms.

Students are responsible for attending their original class schedule until the class change has taken place with a counselor.
