COURSE SCHEDULING

  • Tam HS students must be enrolled in at least 6 classes but may choose up to 8 (some classes, such as PE, Jazz Band, and Stagecraft are offered before or after the regular school day as a 0 or 8th period).  Schedules are created based on requests, space availability, and period offerings; additionally, some courses utilize prerequisites and/or placement exams to determine eligibility for enrollment.  Remember:

    • Course requests are not guaranteed; be thoughtful when choosing your alternate courses
    • Taking two or more AP/Honors classes requires a significant amount of time, energy, and commitment.  Consider your extra-curricular activities and responsibilities as well as your areas of interest and strength when choosing a rigorous schedule; create a balanced schedule for *you*
    • If you change your mind after the scheduling window closes, we may or may not be able to accommodate changes based on staffing and seat availability.
    • If you change your mind after the school year starts, options are typically much more limited and only available in the first eight (8) days; be thoughtful about your choices now

    **The 2024-2025 Course Request portal will be open from Tuesday, January 17th through Friday, February 2nd**

    1/17/2024: 9th and 11th grade students were given a copy of their transcript and their grade level scheduling worksheet. Check out the webinars here:
