Student Success Centre
The Semester 2 Course Change Request Form will open Friday December 5 at 9:00am and close Friday January 9 at 5:00pm. The link to the form will be available on the JCS Student Success D2L page and is available here. Due to the high volume of requests for course changes, we hope to expedite the process by using this online form.
Please read and review the course change request policies carefully before submitting a request.
- Changes will not be made based on switching to a specific teacher (or switching out of a specific teacher's class).
- If you are requesting a course that you have not been recommended for, your student advisor will reach out to you and your parents/guardians for further action.
- If a course request cannot be accommodated, "See Counsellor" will be added to your timetable - please make an appointment to speak to your Student Success Advisor. Teaching assignments often change, the teacher listed on your timetable may not be the teacher when the class begins in Semester 2.
- Courses cannot be moved to different periods because of other commitments. Students are expected to be available for classes during the times they are scheduled and for all periods of the school day.
- This form will ensure that student advisors receive and address every student's request. Only one request will be needed. Once you have submitted, you will not be able change it, or submit again.
- Student Advisors will only contact you if there are questions regarding your schedule. Please be patient and check PowerSchool often for changes to your schedule. Students are required to follow their schedule as seen on PowerSchool until the change has been made.
- Please note: We may not be able to accommodate more than 4 courses per semester through a combination of in-person classes at JCS and CBe-Learn. If you are needing to take 5 or more courses in a semester, please make an appointment with your SSC Advisor.
All schedules are subject to change up until the first day of classes. Please continue to monitor your schedule on PowerSchool.
*Last minute changes often occur, so do not consider your timetable final until the first day of class.*
