Academic advisement is an important part of our School Counseling program at BHS. We encourage and support all students to challenge themselves appropriately, while meeting NYS graduation requirements, when choosing courses.  This will be different for everyone.

Full-time enrollment requires a minimum of five classes plus physical education per semester. For a balanced lifestyle, it is highly recommended that students enroll in six classes plus physical education per semester, which allows for a daily free period for lunch.

Please review the Course Selection timeline below:

**Many decisions integral to the operation of our school, including staffing allocations, are made as a result of your child’s course selection. Please choose carefully!

Final course requests will be available to view on SchoolTool in early April.

If you have any questions about this process, please reach out to your child's School Counselor.
