Good afternoon Daniel Hand High School community,
2021-2022 Scheduling As a reminder, all underclassmen should be meeting with their current teachers to discuss course selection recommendations for next year. Students received electronic versions of the course request form, override form, and link to the Program of Studies earlier this week. Students will enter course selections into Infinite Campus during the week of January 25 – 29. Detailed directions on "how to enter course selections" will be sent to all underclassmen during the afternoon of Sunday, January 24, 2021. Feel free to contact a counselor or administrator if you have any questions during this important process. Please be sure to electronically submit your completed Course Request Form to your counselor and enter your selections in Infinite Campus by Friday, January 29, 2021.
