    Highland Park Families:
     
    We have a new process for 2020-2021 course registration. We are no longer holding a "Registration Day" and students are no longer registering online in Student Portal. We have instead created separate Google Forms for current 9th, 10th and 11th graders. This Google Form has listed all of the courses from our grade-level registration forms. Students will be asked to select their courses for next year on these Google Forms and counselors will enter the course requests into Campus manually as students submit their answers. We posted this information on Schoology for students on 03/25/2020 and students are required to submit their responses by the end of the day on 04/13/2020. Please contact your student's counselor with questions. 
     
    Below are links to the documents that will help you in your course selection:
