What are you talking about? They didn’t even do the info session on classes for HS at my kid’s school until second week of January.
I had questions for my kid’s guidance counselor. I hope they extend the deadline
I teach 9th graders and every 9th grader in my HS registered for classes the 2nd week of December. 10th graders did it the following week. Not sure when juniors did it but I'm 90% certain they already did.
My own child is a 10th grader at a different MCPS HS and she did class registration for next year before winter break
You are confusing a lot of issues. My MS kid has a deadline of January 30 for 9th grade registration. Their info session was in the second week of January.
You are welcome to share data that all the MCPS 8th graders are signing up for 9th grade classes in December before info sessions are held, but I think you are wrong.
People! Everyone has a different date!
Ask the counselor, OP. You cannot go by what other schools are doing. This is a school-specific thing.
Sheesh.
No one cares for your sheesh.

It could be helpful for middle school students to get a few days after they return in-person to finalize classes. Most middle schoolers already had their info sessions.
Sixth and 7th grade students generally have a Feb registration deadline.

You are confusing the fact I never once mentioned middle schoolers. I specifically mentioned that I teach 9th graders and then listed the registration dates/deadlines for each of the high school classes at my school. The thread was titled Middle and High School Registration and nowhere in the original post did they make mention it was for an 8th grader. So my information was in no way confused or incorrect.
The title of this thread says “middle school and high schoolers.” I hope you don’t teach English. Also, as others have pointed out, not every school has the same schedule.

Eight graders register for ninth grade which you might recognize as high school. It is also a process that they’re more unfamiliar with than your high schoolers who have already been there for a year or more.
Your message was incorrect and badly written.

+1. My 8th grader is supposed to sign up for classes by this Friday. Info session was mid-January.

Isn't it just a Google form to fill out? Why would they need to push it back even at a school where it was supposed to be filled out this week?

It depends on the school, OP. Please check with your child's counselor. Generally I believe middle school deadlines are later than high school deadlines.
At Bethesda Chevy-Chase high school, for example, the deadline was Jan 10th, so well before the storm.

Because of the closure this week, will they extend the deadline to register for next year's classes?
