• Advisors are listed on the TUESDAY schedule during HOMEROOM.

Please check your schedule carefully for each of the following:

• Do all required courses appear: Theology, English, Math, Social Studies, and Science?
• Do you have a minimum of five classes EACH semester?
• Are you "double booked" for any period during the semester?
• Are classes properly balanced between first and second semester? (If you have four classes one semester and six the next, that is a problem. As a junior or senior, you should have 1 English class and 1 Theology class each semester.)
• Are consecutive classes in the proper order? (Is Drawing before Adv. Drawing?)
• Are you on track to fulfill all graduation requirements? This is your responsibility. Failure to check now could result in serious problems. Students must earn 23 credits in order to graduate.
• Do you have class scheduled when you should be in lunch (4th period for freshmen/sophomores and 5th period for juniors/seniors)?

SCHEDULE CORRECTIONS ARE LIMITED TO ERRORS LISTED IN THE BULLET POINTS ABOVE.

If there is an error in your schedule, contact Ms. Maloney, Assistant Principal for Academics, via email at courseselection@muhs.edu or call (414) 933-7220, x3031.

At Course Selection, alternate courses were indicated for Theology, English and Social Studies. When a conflict arose in scheduling, these alternate choices were used. Requests to have or not have a specific teacher or to have a specific free period will not be honored and so should not be made.

Graduation Requirements: 23 credits total

Year courses = 1 credit Semester courses = 0.5 credit

Students and parents should check schedules to ensure they are progressing toward these graduation requirements.

The Course Selection process at the beginning of the 2nd semester each year requires students, parents, and advisors to choose carefully and thoughtfully the courses for the year. The master schedule and individual student schedules are created based on these selections. These selections are also used to determine teaching assignments and hiring decisions. Because of this, subsequent changes are only permissible if all of the following conditions are met:

• Student meets all prerequisites for the course.
• Parents and advisor (and teacher, where required) agree to the change. Because balance is an important part of scheduling, this should be taken into consideration.
• Overloads receive the approval of the Asst. Principal for Academics.
• There is adequate space in the course. Courses do reach the maximum seating capacity, and students are not permitted to add classes where there is not space.
• The course a student drops will not fall below the level required to run the course.
• Changes can be made without requiring a student’s schedule to be re-worked.
• The student maintains the minimum number of credits required (5.5 for Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors; 5 for Seniors).
• Requests are not for specific teachers or periods, which cannot and will not be honored.

Additionally, once the school year begins:

• Courses may not be added after the third day of the semester.
• Courses may be dropped during the first three weeks of each semester only.
• Requests for changes to a level of a course should be initiated by the teacher.
• Seniors are required to notify colleges of any course changes during the year.
• AP course drops incur a fee if requested after the AP exam order has been placed in mid-October. Fee is the cost assessed by the College Board for changes (usually between $40 and the full cost of the exam).

The school may consider course changes if a student has been placed in a course inappropriate for his background and talent or withdrawals if a student becomes seriously ill or faces unique personal circumstances. Discussions with the Asst. Principal for Academics about moving a student between levels of a course should be initiated by the teacher.

Process for Course changes (2nd Semester of year prior and Summer):

1. Discuss with your parents. One of them must send an email to maloney@muhs.edu indicating that they approve of the change.
2. Discuss with your advisor. He/she must send an email to maloney@muhs.edu indicating that he/she approves of the change.
3. Fill out the electronic form by the deadline. The form will be open during 2nd semester from mid-March to the end of final exams. During the summer, there are two opportunities to request changes: the end of June and the beginning of August. Exact dates are listed below for the year. Forms submitted after each deadline will not be considered until the next deadline. You will need to be signed into your MUHS Google account to complete the form.

2. Discuss with your advisor. He/she must send an email to maloney@muhs.edu indicating that he/she approves of the change.
3. Fill out the electronic form by the deadline. Courses can only be added up to the 3rd day of the semester. Courses may only be dropped in the first three weeks of the semester.
4. All forms will be reviewed to ensure the request meets the criteria outlined above.

Seniors are required to notify colleges of any course changes during the year.

Summer change request dates: 2023 - 24 school year

• June 22 - 24, 2023
• Aug. 2 - 4, 2023
• No changes are considered after Aug. 4, 2023 until registration in mid-August.

Students enrolled in AP classes are expected to take the corresponding AP exam in May. The registration process for AP Exams takes place through classes in the fall. The College Board sets the exam fees which approximately $98/exam, and MUHS invoices families directly. A student who drops an AP Exam after MUHS submits the exam order in the fall is subject to the fees charged by the College Board.

A student may register for an AP exam even if he is not enrolled in the corresponding course. To do so, he must see Ms. Maloney at the beginning of the year to meet the registration deadlines.
