Tuscola High School Counseling

Course selection is an important step in career planning.

Our future 10th-12th grade students will begin the course selection process in late January/early February. Incoming 9th grade students will begin the process in February/early March.

The counselor will come to the students' English classes to cover the course options for the next school year. Students are given the rest of the week to discuss the course options with their parents/guardians. The counselor will return to the students' English classes to help students finalize their next year's classes.

If students need to change their schedule in the spring or summer then they just need to contact the counselor to let them know of the requested schedule change. Once classes begin for the semester, students won't be allowed to make schedules changes.
