Important Dates for Current NHS Students (Rising 10th-12th) for 2024-2025
Rising 10th – 12th Grade Registration Timeline
It’s time for students to think about courses for the 2024-2025 school year. As students consider which courses they wish to take, they need keep in mind that Norcross High School does yearlong registration. This means students register for the entire 2024-2025 school year this spring. Therefore, students need to make sure they CAREFULLY consider their choices. We hire teachers in the spring based upon the courses students select. Students will have the best chance of being enrolled in the classes they prefer if they request them in January. We are unable to make schedule changes after the Course Correction period in early March. “Changing your mind” about taking a course is not a valid reason for a schedule change so please choose wisely and plan ahead.
A projected timeline for creating student schedules is below. In addition, a variety of other information is available for students and their families.
