Course Selection for 2024-25
School Counselors are excited to have the opportunity to meet individually this year! Please note that students will be meeting one-on-one with their Counselor and will NOT need to reach out directly to schedule a time to meet. The schedule for each grade level is shown below. If students have taken a course like HPE over the summer or are not currently enrolled in the course (not to worry) Counselors will still find time to meet with students during that scheduled time frame.
Rising 12 Academic Advising: Feb 5 — Feb 16 in English
Rising 11 Academic Advising: Feb 20 — March 1 in HPE 10
Rising 10 Academic Advising: Jan 22 — Feb 2 in HPE 9
Students not enrolled in the above/online course will meet separately
What can students do to prepare for our meeting? Please use this time to consider 7 course selections and 3 alternate electives after reviewing the following resources:
-Conversations with the current teacher during Academic Days of Emphasis January 16th and 17th
-Course catalog for descriptions
-Virtual Electives Fair website for short videos of Robinson offerings
-Rising 11th or 12th-grade students on track for the IB diploma should be meeting with IB Diploma Coordinators, Ms. Vu and Ms. Cho, prior to their academic advising window.
