BCPS shared that students are able to see their schedules in FOCUS. At this time, all schedules and course loads at RHS are still in flux. Nothing will be finalized prior to the return of staff. Underclassmen course recommendations are adjusted daily, based on middle school and previous year teacher recommendations. Likewise, many upperclassmen are registering for CCBC dual enrollment courses, external certificate programs, and reducing their schedules. 

 

Because we have limited staff this summer and are still verifying residency for many incoming students, we will not be adjusting schedules prior to staff's return to schools. ALL of our students will have the opportunity to request schedule changes when staff returns to school buildings. 

Thank you all and enjoy the remainder of your summer break. PLEASE STAY HEALTHY AND STAY SAFE!
