Courses:
Courses offered vary from year to year and are decribed in the course catalogue section of the "Academics" link.
Scheduling:
Each year students at OHS register for their classes during advisory. An advisory teacher is assigned to assist students. Should students need additional help, the appropriate counselor may be consulted. Incoming freshmen are computer scheduled for their first year.
The subject selection process puts the student in charge of selecting classes to meet individual interestst and needs; therefore, class schedule changes should not be necessary except during extreme circumstances. Necessary schedule changes should be handled with a counselor during the first ten class days of the first semester (first five days of second semester). Any withdrawal from a class after that time will result in the awarding of a withdrawal failure grade (WF) on the student's permanent record.
