Scheduling - 2026-2027 School Year

Scheduling for the 2026–2027 school year has begun! Sophomores and juniors received in-class scheduling presentations last month, and freshmen will have their presentations in mid-February. Following these presentations, each student will sign up for a one-on-one meeting with their counselor to select courses for the upcoming school year.

New this year: Students will be asked to obtain a parent signature on their scheduling sheet before meeting with their counselor.

Students will have until the end of March to submit their course selections. Counselors will revisit schedules with students in late May to make any necessary adjustments.

We encourage you to ask your student about their scheduling packet and take time to review course options together. A complete list of course offerings and descriptions can be found here. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to the BCHS counseling team.
