Current EPS 8th grade students will soon have an opportunity to learn more about the next steps in their education as they participate in discussions with high school counselors regarding their course registration for the upcoming school year.

High school counselors will visit each EPS middle school in February to distribute course registration information which outlines courses offered to 9th graders, as well as specific course recommendations.

Parents will also receive a video link to further explain the registration process and course offerings.  Students and parents should then discuss the recommendations and elective courses and complete the forms prior to the second round of counselor-visits in late February and early March to finalize courses.
