9th Grade Registration

All 8th Grade students attend a registration assembly late January or early February to receive instructions that explain how to register for 9th Grade.

Key Points for 9th Grade Registration:

When you start 9th grade at OHMS You are officially in high school! The courses taken in 9th grade will count towards your high school graduation requirements.
Every 8th grade student is invited to attend a PCCR (Plan for College and Career Readiness) meeting. These are individual meetings with your school counselor (parents were also invited and encouraged to attend). These meetings take place between November – February. During this meeting, a 4-Year Plan is created in Skyward (see “Career Plan” in Skyward). A 4-Year plan is customized to meet student goals and plans for high school. Refer to your 4-Year Plan when selecting courses.
1.0 indicates the course is a full-year course
