[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do they know how many teachers to hire when they don’t know the student population yet?[/quote]

They know the number of students that they have currently. They need 9th and 10th grade teachers for all the core classes. They might even have an idea about the classes that the kids initially selected, they have the kids names and student information. If the class selections were electronically done they could have been sent to Skyview. The only school that could be a wildcard for selections would be SLHS students who were not able to select AP classes and some might make those choices now that they are available.[/quote]

How would anyone know yet what AP courses are available this fall  at Skyview?  [/quote]

FWIW, you do not even know what AP classes will be available at any school.  It depends on enrollment and other factors.  And, even if an AP class is offered at another school, it does not always mean there will be space for your child in it.
Another factor is whether or not there is more than one class of that AP class--and, it very well may be that your child will have a conflict with another class.  My DD had to change her loved elective because it was taught at the only time her AP language course was offered.[/quote]
