Description

This video walks current 9 - 11th grades through the course selection process in PowerSchool.

A

Welcome seahorses: the purpose of this tutorial is to demonstrate how to select classes for next year. Using powerschool step is to navigate to the burlington high school web page to find the power school icon at the top of the burlington high school web page is the power school icon, which is a light bulb, and the word powerschool.

A

Please click on that when you do that, it brings you to the student and parent sign-in page where you put your username and then you enter your password and then press the sign in button.

A

Dawn will look similar to this.

A

The toolbar on the left, the navigation toolbar, is where you want to look and you want to scroll down until you see class registration, the icon that represents class registration is a chair and a pencil click on that.

A

What the class request page looks like on the left hand, side is p health and then the next topic is 11th grade. English next is 11th grade history and social studies. These will depend on what grade you're in so this is just an example of someone who's going to be going into 11th grade.

A

Let's start with the 11th grade, english, all juniors must take one credit of english choose one year, long class or two semester classes to equal one credit. So the information I just read is underneath the title of the section, and it gives you information about what you need to know.

A

I have a red exclamation here point over here on the right, and that means I need to pay attention to this one.

A

I click on the pencil icon to edit and it said you know it had said that I need to take one credit of english, so I can choose a year-long or two semester classes to equal on credit.

A

I don't see any full credit courses on this page, so I'm going to click next to find the next page- and it says journalism is a full credit, but I don't have the prereqs for that. So I'm going to go ahead and choose two other classes to fill in my schedule and press ok.

A

I then continue my next red exclamation point is 11th grade history and social studies, and I know that there's a requirement for that. So I'm going to go ahead and click the pencil icon and I would like to take.

A

Let's see I resist and why and go ahead and press ok and you choose the ones you want and what you can see is, as you fill up your your course requests the what you've chosen populates onto the the row next to the topic, so that you know if what what once you're going to take um ooh 11th grade history and social studies electives, I can take that. Oh that one's already checked off, so I'm not going to go there math I'm going to go for concepts of algebra and press. Ok.

A

Science, the science is required, so let's choose a science.

A

And look there's more than one page, so I want to make sure I check out all of those.

A

So I'm going to scroll down to the bottom, because I have a lot of green marks right here and say requires between six and eight credit hours requesting for four credit hours, so I still need at least two more credit hours. So, let's find another subject eleventh grade electives: let's go there.

A

I think it'd be fun to be in yearbook, so I'm going to choose that and press ok and then, let's see music. I love music, I'm going to go here and go for advanced harmony, honors, because I've already taken the ap course in our year prior and then it says requires between six and eight credits and requesting six. So I'm all set- and I press submit.
