55 A Word About Honors Courses You do not need to take EVERY honors course to get in to a good college. Take honors in areas you are good at and like. Make sure you are considering the time these classes take!! Balance is important. Selective schools and scholarship sponsors are looking for the WHOLE package that means some honors, good ACT scores, activities, leadership, etc.

57 If a student s enrollment is not entered into Skyward AND the enrollment form signed by parents and turned in to the Counseling Office by 3PM on Friday, March 10: We will make you a schedule and you will have to live with it.

58 At EHS we make the ENTIRE Master Schedule based on Student Requests SO: Schedule Change Rules Changes will only be made for the following reasons: A. You are not enrolled in a required class. B. You are enrolled in a class for which you already received credit. C. You have not met prerequisites. D. Your schedule is incomplete. E. Your teacher recommends you advance to a higher level course or move out of the course due to 1 st semester failure. So, if you are CAPABLE (teacher gives consent), and you COMMIT to the course (by enrolling and parents signing off), then you are expected to COMPLETE the course.
