How is scheduling going to be changed?

Identified the problems Students being placed in an inappropriate level Disagreements of honors levels students between parents, teachers, and students on appropriate level. Some parents are pushing for their kids to be placed in an honors level even though they cannot do the work.

Idea. 1. The computer makes the schedule with the student disputing after. 2. This year can't be fixed. 3. Mentor program 4. Take out the computer process with students in the computer lab. 5. Better prerequisit 6. Pathways for students that starts from the freshmen year.

2. Inconsistent Paperwork/Return

3. Human Error/core classes

4. Prerequisites for Specific courses
