Course Requests are now available!

  • Dear Current and Future Irvington High School Families,
     
    We hope that you are well. This is a reminder that the Course Verification Period ends on Thursday, April 23rd. If you are seeking any changes to your Student Course Requests, please make sure to complete the require form below in order for your request to be processed.
     
     
    Having trouble?
    Also remember:
    • Students should not email counselors directly unless they feel there is additional information they wish to share after completing the form. 
    • If you have not yet completed the original request form, please do so. Rising 9th Graders should use this form. Rising 10-12th graders should use this form.
    • Please review Student Course Requests carefully, especially those that require summer assignments.   
    Thank you in advance for carefully reviewing your child’s 2020-2021 course requests.
     
    Please do not hesitate to contact either of us if you have any questions.
     
    Many thanks,
    Juliet Gevargis-Mizimakoski & Emily Colman 
     
    Below is additional information that was sent in the original email, but may still be of importance to you:
    • Counselors will update Student Course Requests after April 23 and will work to fill all core course requests. If there are any issues fulfilling core course requests, Counselors will be in touch with impacted students. 
    • With regard to honors placement, students who qualified for an honors class will see those courses in their course requests. We recognize that your child may be disappointed if they are not accepted. However, we hope you’ll remember that most Advanced Placement classes are open enrollment, so all students will be given the opportunity to take advanced level courses in junior and senior years.  
    • With regard to electives, Counselors will work to get students' primary or alternate course requests and only if they are unable to fill a student’s primary or alternate request will Counselors reach out to gain additional input. Please note that completing a request does not guarantee the ability to add the class into a student’s schedule.
    • Students will not see any support classes listed in their course requests. These classes, such as academic support and resource room, will be added after annual reviews are completed.
    • In the meantime, please review the list of classes that require summer work. Giving you this information now is intended to help you make informed decisions about classes and the work that will need to be done prior to the school year beginning. You can access a list of all courses that have summer work here.
