Course Level Change Down 

A level change down in a course is defined as moving from a specific AP or IB course to the corresponding honors course, or from a specific honors course to the corresponding conventional course.
A student may transfer on or before October 16th in 1st semester and on or before March 13 in 2nd semester. Any level change down will transfer all previously earned grades, including the associated weight (i.e.--84% in an honors course=89% in a conventional course; 84% in an AP/IB course=94% in a conventional course).

Course Level Change Up 

A level change up in a course is defined as moving from a specific conventional course to the corresponding honors, AP or IB course; or from a specific honors course to the corresponding AP/IB course.
 No level change up is permitted after the first two weeks of each semester.

Attention: Class sections and staffing were set in the Spring based upon student scheduling requests at that time. Making a schedule change now is very difficult because classes are staffed and at or near capacity.

All schedule change requests should be academic in nature.
Students should check graduation and athletic eligibility requirements before dropping courses.
Submitting a request does not guarantee a change can be made.
Requests are based on academic importance and class size.
Counselors cannot accept requests for teachers or lunch changes.
Please reference the high school programs and pathways for course descriptions, graduation requirements, honors diploma designations, etc.
If you need to drop a CCP course, please contact your counselor.

Are you having an issue with an academic course?

An essential first step is to communicate with the teacher directly via email or in-class. Most concerns, when directly addressed in partnership with the teacher, can be resolved. It is important to practice and develop strong self-advocacy skills and self-determination, which have been shown to improve educational and life outcomes. This is a great opportunity to practice those skills!

Need additional academic support outside of school hours?

Dublin City Schools provides a list of current DCS teachers who provide tutoring services outside of the school day.
