The updated Program of Studies for the 2020-2021 school year is now available by clicking the tab above. Counselors will be conducting classroom lessons and then meeting individually with students to submit course requests through Health/Driver’s Ed classes (9th and 10th graders) or US/VA History classes (11th graders.) Students who have one of these courses during the second semester will go through this process at that time. Please contact your school counselors with any questions.
