Course Selection: 2022-2023
Course Selection Process
1. Teachers make course recommendations.
2. Your course recommendations are viewable in your Aspen Portal and will be posted as PDFs by the end of the week of February 28th.
3. Have questions about your course recommendations? Have a conversation with your teacher.
4. Use your course recommendation forms or this blank course selection form to prepare for your appointment with your counselor. Please discuss your course recommendations and choices with your parents/guardians/family. By meeting with your counselor, you are confirming that you have made decisions with your parent/guardians/family regarding your courses for next year.
5. Make an appointment with your counselor. All course requests get input to the system at one time, so it does not matter when you have your appointment.
10th & 11th GRADE APPOINTMENTS: February 28th-March 18th Please visit our website and schedule an appointment through your counselor's YouCanBook Me account.
9th GRADE APPOINTMENTS: March 21st - April 1st Please visit our website and schedule an appointment through your counselor's YouCanBook Me account.
Elective Course Considerations:
If you have any questions as to what a course is, please find that information in Framingham High School's Program of Studies. Staffing and scheduling decisions are made based on the course selection of students in the spring. We will work hard to create a master schedule that serves all students based on their requests. We strive to give students their first choices, but they may also receive their alternative courses. Please be sure to put 6 classes that you are interested in taking, as schedule changes will not be possible once schedules are created.
Course Recommendation Overrides:
In the event that you would like to take a level that is higher than what was recommended by your teacher, please first talk to your teacher about their recommendation. If after having a conversation with your teacher you still choose to request a higher level, you must fill out this override form. Filling out this form does not mean you will be scheduled for the course you are requesting. You will receive follow up regarding these requests. Additionally, please remember that if you override into a higher level, you must stay in that level for the full first quarter next year.
