Student in science class

As we approach the new year, we are excited invite you to save the date for our Curriculum Night at 91ÌÒÉ« High, which will take place on Jan. 2 from 5-7:30 p.m.

Curriculum Night is an exciting evening designed to highlight all of the amazing course offerings we have at 91ÌÒÉ« High for our students currently in grades 8-11. The goal of this gathering is to support our families as students prepare to work with their guidance counselors to create their schedule for the coming academic year, keeping in mind post-secondary college/career plans. 

During the event, Principal Jodi Commerford will share a presentation that gives a comprehensive summary of our course offerings at 91ÌÒÉ« High School in our various departments, sharing details about regents courses, electives, advanced electives and more. Parents and students are encouraged to review the 91ÌÒÉ« High course offerings prior to and after the event to gain a better understanding of what courses they'd like to consider including in their schedule for the coming academic year.


In addition to Curriculum Night, students will learn more about our course offerings in grade-level assemblies, and teachers will engage with our students during class in early 2025 to provide a more personalized view of course offerings, particularly in areas where students have many choices.


With a focus on promoting personal excellence, school counselors will encourage students to select required courses and electives which will challenge and engage then, while also reviewing graduation requirements. 

Here is the order in which school counselors will work on creating schedules:

  • January 2025: current juniors and eighth grade students.
  • February 2025: current sophomores.
  • March 2025: current freshmen.

Course requests must be completed by the last week of March, and students have until May 1 to make changes to their course selections. Families and students are encouraged to be thoughtful in their selections so schedules can be established in a timely manner, which will help pave the way for a smooth start to our upcoming 2025-2026 academic year.
