Rising 9 th grade students and parents of Manchester High School Important Note about Scheduling PLEASE READ! We welcome you as part of our Lancer family for the 2011-2012 school year. Manchester is a wonderful school with a caring faculty and many academic and extracurricular programs to help you succeed both as a student and as an individual. We want your transition from middle school to go as smoothly as possible! A very important part of that transition is scheduling. We invite both parent and student to take an active role in this process. Below you will find the timeline that has been coordinated to help schedule students for their upcoming freshman year. Please take an active role in this process by looking over the material, considering your interests, and deciding which elective classes you would like to take next year. January 14 th SCHEDULING GUIDES GO HOME Students will receive scheduling guide at their school. These guides have all the information about different classes available, what the classes are about, graduation requirements, etc. The goal in getting these books out early is that you can have time to look them over before counselors meet with the students to schedule. In the front of this guide is a copy of the Course Selection Sheet that the counselors will use when they come to schedule your student in the classroom. When students meet with the high school counselors on January 27 th (Manchester Middle) or January 28 th (Bailey Bridge) they should have a very firm idea of the elective classes they want to take. January 20 th SCHEDULING INFORMATION NIGHT This information session starts at 7pm at Manchester High School in the auditorium. This is for rising 9 th grade parents AND students. We will be discussing the transition to 9 th grade, graduation requirements, elective choices, and lots of important information. PLEASE DON T MISS IT. (Also, please bring the scheduling guides you already received. More than likely, we will not have extra copies). January 27 th (Manchester Middle) & January 28 th (Bailey Bridge) SCHEDULING DAY High School counselors will be in the classrooms with the students at the middle schools to answer questions about classes and to actually schedule them for their electives for the upcoming year. PLEASE take full advantage of the scheduling guides and the scheduling information night so that when students come to school on these days they will be ready to ask any lingering questions. After electives are chosen, 8 th grade teachers will take the following week or so to recommend core classes and the leveling for those classes (i.e. English, History, Math, etc.) based upon the student s current progress* and requirements set by the high school. If you have questions about the levels recommended for these classes, please talk to your student s current teacher or 8 th grade counselor as soon as possible. End of April COURSE REQUEST VERIFICATION LETTERS GO HOME Parents will receive a copy of their students proposed 9 th grade schedule with 3 rd nine weeks report cards. If there are any errors that you notice on the proposed course request, this is the final opportunity to make corrections. Because of master scheduling and staffing requirements, there are no schedule changes allowed after this process. A letter will be attached stating a firm deadline for schedule changes. *NOTE: Manchester will also look at student s final grades to see if recommendations need to be adjusted. 1

Diplomas for Students Entering High School in 2011-2012 School Year On the previous page is a copy of the 4-year plan that the 8 th grade counselors work with your students on to help them start to get a sense of a) what they might want to take over their high school career and b) just how important it is to start planning now. Also included on the copy of the 4-year plan is information regarding the new guidelines for the diplomas offered by the Virginia Department of Education. This coming school year, not only will there be changes to the two diplomas that are already offered (the Standard and Advanced) but there will be two new diplomas that are being offered, the Standard Technical and the Advanced Technical. Hopefully the information on this page will help you understand a little more about the requirements for these diplomas.

Currently the county is still in the planning phase on how to implement this course. Career and Technical Education Electives these electives are determined by the county and are we are still waiting for a final approved list. But we can assume they will fall into the same category of classes that are offered by our Career and Technical department at Manchester High School. Foreign Language a student can achieve the foreign language requirement for the advanced diploma by taking 3 years of one foreign language, or 2 years of one language and 2 years of another. 3

Things to Know About the Course Selection Sheet The form on the next page is an exact copy of the scheduling form we will use when we come to the middle school to schedule 8 th graders. You should take time to look it over, read through the course descriptions of the electives found in this book, and narrow down your elective choices. Please bring this book, and any questions you have, to school on the day the high school counselors are scheduled to meet with you. 9 th graders will have seven (7) courses on their schedule. Five (5) of those courses are considered core courses and two (2) of them are considered electives. The core courses that are needed are English, Math, Science, History and PE. 8 th Grade teachers will choose 9 th grade core courses and leveling based on student s performance this year. See page 6 for more on leveling. *If a student is recommended for English 9 P level, they are required to take Strategic Reading as well You MUST choose 2 electives (number them on the form, your first choice is #1 and your second choice is #2). Consider your choices carefully because these are the classes you will have when you start the 9 th grade. When you pick these classes, they are the ones you are telling us you want to take and that is how the master schedule and teacher ratios are determined. World Languages count as an elective. If you choose a World Language then you have one (1) other elective choice. *Food/Parenting and Keyboard/CompApps are both year long courses comprised of semester classes. See course descriptions for details. You also have to choose two (2) alternate electives. These are the electives you would want to take in case the first two choices you pick a) don t end up being offered or b) don t fit in your schedule. This is MANDATORY and is for your benefit so that we as the counselors don t have to pick an alternate elective for you we would much rather you get a class you want to be in
