Registering for Next Year's Classes

As you heard during today's homeroom, all students currently in grades 9, 10, or 11 will use the online registration system to select the classes you would like to take next year.

Over the next few days your teachers should continue reviewing the different classes offered within their departments as well as talking with you individually about the courses they would recommend for you to take next year. Please be sure to carry your registration materials with you so that you can get your teacher signatures on the course recommendation form and can make any notes about other classes of interest. If you'd like to hear more in depth information directly from the teachers who teach particular courses, please be sure to attend Curriculum Night next Tuesday, February 1st from 7 - 9pm.

After you have determined which courses you would like to take, please talk it over with your parents and then log in and register. (The online registration system will open this weekend after you have received your teacher recommendations.) You will register on the portal at http://www.worthington-portal.org/ and it will prompt you for your username and password which you should know from school. If you have any problems, using the online registration system, please stop in and let me know so that I can try to fix it.

Remember, your math teachers indicated the math course that they are recommending for you to take next year online already so you will not be adding a math class. Also, as you are completing your online registration, don't forget that you can leave me a note in the request comments section. If you change your mind after completing your registration, simply log back in before February 7th and make your changes. After February 7th your course requests will be locked.

Don't forget to save your signed course recommendation forms! You *MUST* turn those in during your meeting with me. Freshmen will meet with me during Global History classes on February 9th, Sophomores will meet with me during BESS classes on February 10th, and Juniors will meet with me during your individually scheduled appointments. (Please don't lose your appointment slips since they are your only reminder and your pass if you need to leave class.) For those juniors who have individual appointments next week, please make sure you complete your online registration promptly this weekend or at the start of next week as I need your classes to be submitted online before our meeting! (Don't worry, we can still make changes if necessary.)
