Student athletes should meet with the school counselor every year to plan their high school schedule. Students must meet certain academic requirements, including core courses, grade point averages, and SAT and ACT scores for initial eligibility.

We will permit students who desire to drop or add a class prior to the beginning of each school year, after the initial spring scheduling, and under the following conditions:

• The student still maintains the required hours of class per week.

• The student provides a justifiable reason for the change.

• Parental consent exists.

• Class membership warrants the change.

• Class period creates no conflict.

• The ability of the student to add the course is warranted.

• The student obtains approval from the teacher and administration to audit a course.

• Please discuss schedule changes with the school counselor.

Are you experiencing:

• Loneliness

• Tension at home

It’s not just you. There is help! Our Student Assistance Program attempts to identify, intervene, refer, and follow up with students who experience difficulty at school due to addiction, mental health, home life, or other problem behaviors. We do not attempt to diagnose or treat students with these problems, but rather, we seek to help students and provide intervention through appropriate referrals and follow-up. Of course, all referrals remain confidential.

You can learn more about this program from PA Network for Student Assistance Services (PNSAS).

Please call Mrs. Matzinger to make an appointment to speak with a teacher or counselor.
