IMPORTANT NOTES:

• Students cannot enroll after this time or at any other time during the school year.
• Since this is an optional academically rigorous program, students are expected to maintain the program’s academic standards, high grades, and other participation requirements. Students who are unable to meet these expectations may be recommended to transition back to the regular classroom program at any time during the school year. Likewise, parents may request that their child return to the regular program if they feel it is in the student's best interest.​
