Course Selection
Current eighth grade students attending a South San Francisco Unified School District (SSFUSD) middle school will select courses for the fall semester of their freshmen year after meeting with high school counselors in January.
Students new to SSFUSD and South San Francisco High School (SSFHS) will meet with counselors to select courses after completing the student enrollment process.
Current SSFHS freshmen, sophomores, and juniors have one (1) week to return their scheduling forms to school after deciding on a new semester schedule in consultation with their high school counselors and parents. Students enrolling in honors or advanced placement (AP) courses must receive recommendations from their teachers and turn in a signed student/parent contract.
Four Year Plan
Every class taken during high school is a step on a pathway to the future. That's why having a four-year plan is important. The plan helps students map out their graduation, college, and career goals and align their courses and activities with them.
High school counselors can help students identify their goals and put together individualized plans to realize their goals.
