A Message to Parents/Guardians and Students
A
MESSAGE TO PARENTS/GUARDIANS AND STUDENTS
It is hard to imagine that we
are already half way through the 2022-23
school year and approaching the significant process of course selection. It is
essential that students and their parents play
an active role in this process, as it will ultimately determine their schedules
for the 2023-24 school year. The faculty and
counseling staff will gladly assist, as needed, throughout the selection
process. We encourage students to take this process very seriously. Students
should consult with teachers and certainly their counselor to
develop the most appropriate schedule possible.
We would like to welcome the
incoming ninth grade class, the class of 2027, to
Donegal High School. The course selection process is the first of several steps
to help ensure that you have a successful and positive transition from Donegal
Junior High School to Donegal High School. As students look through the curriculum guide, they
will see general information about our school, course selection sheets, a
planning guide and specific course descriptions from each of our departments.
Please carefully note the
deadlines associated with the course selection process. We work to maintain these deadlines so that, if
possible, we can provide a tentative schedule for all students at the end of
the current school year. Students, who wish, will
have the opportunity to meet individually with their counselors to discuss course selection and their potential course schedule.
The master schedule at Donegal
High School is driven by student selection. It is imperative that students take
their time, choose responsibly, with intention and purpose while selecting
their courses for the upcoming school year.
Please read the course descriptions and understand what is expected for each
chosen course. Students will not be able
to request schedule changes after August 11, 2023.
