Oo! Just got my schedule! Got Photo/Video Lab, Concert Band, and PSEO first quarter. So, that means with Trig I only got one quarter of Independent Science Research, which makes me feel bad. I told the teacher I'd try to get it for a semester, and he bought me a ton of E.Coli thinking that was the case.

We just finished band camp last Friday and we start school this Wednesday.
They didn't let us pick what period we want our classes this year, and I'm worried...What if I get crappy classes? Or I get a class with no friends in it for 4th period and don't get to eat lunch with my friends. Ugh. Stress.

You're starting school already...?
Our local community college starts on the 23rd, which is pretty early for around here. Band camp is that same week, and school starts on September 8th (we always start the day after labor day). Then again, we end on June 10th. When do you end?
And before, you got to pick when period you had class? Luuuucky!

We end on May 21 this year, I think. I WISH we started after Labor Day, then I could have my birthday during the summer.
Yeah, we got to pick the period we had classes. They stopped letting us do that, but I'm not sure why...Seems like it would be harder on them having to do it for us. What sucks though is that some classes are only one period a day, so we have to work around them. For example: Each Honors English class is only one period a day for each grade. So if I wanted to take History that period, no dice, gotta do it some other time, but I can't do it either 1st period or 6th period, because those are the only two periods they offer band class and Psychology.

Hey everyone, I'm back! Miss me? Haha just kidding. I haven't gotten my schedule yet. We have a scheduling day at my school where our grades are split into like, 10 groups and we go to different classes and learn our options. I signed up for Band, Jazz Band, Choir, Pre-Calc, AP Chem, AP Lit, and American History. I finally get my schedule when I go in for school pictures at the end of the month.

So, we started school today...
I can't really accurately describe how the scheduling must have went. Fustercluck. Let's go with that. I signed up for Psychology, right? I was all pumped up about the class...love the teacher, love the subject, love my friends in the class...What do I have on my schedule today? Web design II.
Who wants to guess which class I haven't taken yet? ... Web Design I. They just stuck me in there...I mean, I need a computer class, but I can't take this one. So, YEAH. GAH.

That's sucky. At my school they notify you if you can't get into a class and let you choose what replacement class you want. But if you can't get into a class its not usually because there's too many people, it's because there's not enough. That's why I'm taking Choir. I signed up for Spanish III, but only like, 4 people signed up so they weren't going to have it. They also got rid of our broadcasting class, and combined Journalism and Yearbook :S

That totally fails. Here you get your schedule before school starts (usually the end of July), so if you need a change you can appeal for one before school starts. Also sucks you start today. My heart goes out to you.

^Thanks. I got my schedule changed today though, so all is better! Sort of. I can't take Psychology until next year (and as a possible future Psych major, that ticks me off to no end. I would like to take a class of the sort to...get a little pre-college knowledge under my belt.) BUT, I did get out of my Web II class and into American History. It's kind of a blessing in disguise because after this year, I'll have all my history credits and I can take the Dual Credit American History next year for college.

That happened with a few people in our band too, not to mention with other classes...one of my friends got pushed out of Honors English because she signed up for French II, and the only period that is offered is during our English. You can't take Honors for five years and then go to regular English. You just can't. ><
