We are excited to have you forecast for your 9th grade classes! Everything you need to forecast for classes for the 2021-2022 school year is outlined below.  For a successful forecasting experience, please carefully read and complete Steps 1-3.  Once you have thoroughly completed the first 3 steps, you will be ready for Step 4 which is to contact your counselor with your selections.

To Forecast for 2021-2022 Classes:

Step 3) Consult the interactive Forecasting Guide to learn more about each course that interests you.  As an alternative, there is also a PDF version Forecast Guide you can print.
