Thanks - a lot to figure out in this massive system.


I’m guessing she goes to Blair. If so there is a form that opens tomorrow the 31st, where you can request a change. You can find the link on the Blair counseling website. Do this ASAP when the form opens.

Ironically, this is the sort of thing where you may benefit from the size of the high school because there might be a language class at the correct level at the same time.

I agree with the others that this will be treated as a high priority and suspect you will get a pretty quick response from the counselor.

That type of change is prioritized and should only take a day or two.
It's the elective changes that might take longer.

They have always been really quick for my DD- though her school is only 2400 ish. Normally the same day, but I’m not sure she’s ever requested on the very 1st day.
