Scheduling Information for the 2019 - 2020 School YearCourse selection is an important process that provides students an opportunity to select classes that are aligned to their post secondary plans. In addition, students are encouraged to explore a variety of options that are outlined in the program of studies. It is also crucial to every student’s success to have consistent input from their teachers, guidance counselors and parents. All parties should help students plan an appropriate sequence of courses, mindful of any prerequisites to individual courses. In addition, they should note that courses are arranged according to four strands: Advanced Placement (AP), Honors (H), College Prep Standard (CP-ST) and College Prep Essential (CP-ES). Moreover, Woonsocket High School will make every attempt to satisfy each student’s course requests; however, some classes may have to be cancelled due to lack of enrollment.
