<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2"><span>We have a high school of 1700 (9-12). Below is our schedule change policy. It is in the curriculum guide, the handbook, and on the change request forms. We have seen a huge reduction in requests since we instituted the 3 day wait period for most requests. We also will only make changes if it doesn't drop a class size below our minimum for the class to make onto the master. We only allow students to drop a preAP or AP course after meeting with their asst. principal because we also meet with each student one-on-one to choose the proper classes & parents must sign their enrollment forms. Students have until we pull numbers for the master schedule discussions to make changes to their pre-enrollment, which is usually at the beginning of April. Students can change from a sit-in class to an online course anytime throughout the year. </span></font></p><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2"><span><br></span></font></p><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2"><span></span><b><span>Prior to and during the first 3 days of class,

<div><span style="color:#002060">We are working on reviewing our policies and procedures regarding pre-enrollment and schedule changes. Can you please share your policy and procedures regarding the request of
a schedule change and the reasons you will change a schedule? Is this a written policy in your student handbook? How long do you give kids at the beginning of the year to request a schedule change and what is your process for them to request a change? What
is your student enrollment? I am thinking small schools may handle it differently than larger schools so that would be interesting to know.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
