Schedule changes will be kept to a minimum and on a space available basis. Schedule changes will be made for those affected by: (1) attendance in summer school, (2) failures, (3) teacher initiated level changes, and (4) recognized special learning needs. All level changes must be completed by November 15, 2006 for first semester and by April 6, 2007 for second semester. In the event that a student drops a course from his schedule, designation will be made on the student transcript as follows:

- No indication will appear if the course is dropped before the last date.
- “WF” — Withdrawal with Failure — if the course is dropped after the last date and the failure will be calculated into the student’s grade point average.
