Session Change Request

Link: https://goo.gl/HmmV34 or
           

Due Date: Week 5 of the current block
(Late submissions will not be accepted)

After enrolling at Sierra High School, students have the right to petition the administration for a session change. Session changes may be granted at the beginning of each block. Please note that work, probation, drug classes, insight classes, transportation, child care, etc., are not mandates for session changes. Earning a diploma should be the number one focus of all our students. Acceptance of the petition for a session change is based on the 3A's rubric above.

The administration reserves the right to deny any petition for a session change, regardless of the reason. If a session change is granted and the student regresses at any point thereafter from the scoring criteria listed above, or fails to meet any conditions that were applied toward the session change, the student will be moved back to his/her original session immediately.

5th-Year Seniors

Due Date: Week 5 of the current block
(Late submissions will not be accepted)

 Any student that has had their four years of high school and has not met the SBCUSD’s graduation requirements of 220 credits is considered a 5th-Year Senior. The goal and priority for all 5th-Year Senior’s is to make up any credit deficiencies and graduate from Sierra High School. As a result, 5th-Year Seniors are not permitted to participate in sports. The enrollment of every 5th-Year Senior is contingent upon the 3A's rubric above.

The administration reserves the right to deny the enrollment of any 5th-Year Senior. Any student that is denied 5th-Year status will be automatically referred to the Inland Career Education Center. If the student is allowed to enroll or remain enrolled as a 5th-Year Senior and the student regresses at any point thereafter from the scoring criteria listed above, or fails to meet any conditions that were applied towards their enrollment as a 5th-Year Senior, the student will be immediately referred to the Inland Career Education Center. Progress monitoring will occur at the end of each 6-week block once final grades have posted to determine continued eligibility.
