Electives

Middle school elective classes encourage students to pursue interests and passions beyond the core curriculum. They offer rotating elective choices which means students will take one of their class choices the first semester and another class choice the second semester.

Students request their elective choices using an online form  at the end of each school year. A registration link will be sent through email to students and will be available on our school website. While we try our best to fulfill a student's choice, we are unable to guarantee them. Priority is given to eighth grade students first and if there is not enough interest to warrant an elective, that course may be dropped from our master schedule.
