A How-to-Guide to Freshman Registration

Planning a schedule for freshman year can be quite an intimidating process. Hopefully this blog post will help students and parents through the process. The lime green registration sheets are due by Thursday, March 25th to the student's grade school main office. Class selection should also be inputted into TeacherEase before returning the sheets (for those students with access to TeacherEase.)

The front side of the registration sheet is the demographic portion. It is important that it be filled out completely since the information will be entered into the computer system.

Each 8th grader who heard the presentation from the counselors was given a paper copy of the curriculum guide. It lists all of the classes and gives a description of each. 

The back side of the registration is critical in figuring out a schedule for each student.

• Each student needs to make 14 choices.
• The classes in the first section are required classes. All students should check those 8 spots. 
• The second section of electives are full year classes. That is why there are two spots in front of each.  
• Foreign Language - It is important that students who plan to go on to college take a foreign language. Most colleges require two years of a foreign language.
• The third section is a listing of classes that only last one semester.  A description of each can be found in the curriculum guide.
• When completed, students should have 14 check marks in the 3 sections. 
• Alternate Classes: It is important that students list four alternate classes. In the event that a class is unavailable, the counselors will automatically replace it with an alternate choice.

Parent(s) need to sign completed sheet and have student return it to his or her main office.  The high school will pick up sheets from the grade school offices.

Inputting classes into TeacherEase... (for CEC and Mossvile students)

The registration can be done from the student or parent screen.  In the event that the student cannot figure out how to input classes, as long as he or she has returned the teal sheet to the office, everything will be fine. The counselors can always input the classes.

To input classes, click on Academics from the Tabs at the top of the TeacherEase screen. From that dropdown, choose Course Registration. You will see a message that pops up. Within that error message is the link to input classes.

Here is a quick breakdown of registration process...

  1) Select courses on sheet.

  2) Input courses into the computer.

  3) Turn sheet into your main office by MARCH 25th.

  5) High school will collect sheets from the junior highs.

  6) Counselors will meet with teachers, look at test scores and grades, and decide about English, math, and science placements. We will call home if our recommendation is different than what you want.
