While the end of THIS school year is the big news right now, there are some very important things to address for the NEXT school year as well.

It is crucial that all returning students complete the online enrollment process ASAP!

Counselors will begin the scheduling process very soon, and schedules will only be created for those students who have completed online enrollment.  The best way to ensure that your child will get the classes they want is to ENROLL NOW!  Begin the enrollment process by logging in to your MyBackpack account and selecting “Enrollment/Re-enrollment.”  For complete step-by-step instructions you can click here.
