January 2018

Dear Future Loudoun Valley High School Students,

It’s time to select courses for your high school program of study. Be sure to consider your own motivation and study habits, your future career goals, the school’s recommendations, and your own personal interests when making your decisions. This year, all students will choose courses using the course request feature in Phoenix. Families will be able to access this feature from home and will be able to make changes through March 2nd in ParentVue. LV School Counselors will be at BRMS January 16, 22 & 23 to assist students with course selection for 9th grade. Parents/Guardians are encouraged to review course selections with their child, making any corrections online and on the Course Selection Sheet between January 22 and March 2nd . The course selection sheet should be returned to the 8th grade counselor. In the coming months, Mr. Peterson will be available to meet with students to review the course selections and 4-year academic plan. After March 2nd , requests for changes to course selections should be made in writing to Mr. Peterson. No changes will be accepted after June 1st.
