Questions about high school registration (Wootton)

[Anonymous]

Is the Wootton H&A program any good?

Can rising 9th-grade students only sign up for the courses on the 9th-grade card, or can they do any?

Any current Wootton parents there … will you be able to give some guidance and suggestions in regard to course selections and how 9 th grade works? This is our first time navigating the high school registration. Thank you

Contact the high school's resource counselor

Contact the school counseling department. My DS, now a junior, had a smooth ninth grade transition. We moved in from out of the state and the counselor walked us through all opportunities. They are very helpful.

Try your MS counselor first. Wootton counseling turned over this year. The one we have doesn't respond to email.

MS counselor also not that responsive . It’s too much to process, analyze and decide . Wish they gave enough time to decide .

I am also a parent, and is mostly wondering about the Science Capstone PLUS program. Is it like an AP Capstone?

if they are not responding, reach out to the resource counselor. All staff should be responding to their emails.

I have heard that overall the transition has been smooth. The new counselors care about the kids and are making the department a welcoming place.
