Certificated Classes:
- Cert classes may be added to a student’s schedule for the first two weeks of the semester.

Elective (Contractor) Classes:
- Most of our contractor classes can be added for the first quarter of the semester

Class waitlists will dissolve after the deadlines.
Dropping classes: Classes can be dropped at any time as long as your student has at least 1 certificated class. But, the sooner you do this, the sooner another student can participate.
The ADD/DROP form is located in Resources/Forms
Waitlist Policy
If your student has been assigned a number on a class waitlist, you will be notified by email and/or Talking Points text if a spot opens in the class.
Waitlists are viewable in your ALE/School Data Solutions parent account.
- Login to ALE then follow the numbers below 2-4 for the applicable school year.

How long does a waitlist remain active?
- Certificated class waitlists remain open through the first two weeks of the semester.
- Most contractor waitlists stay open through the first half of the semester.
Waitlist Dos and Don’ts
- Remember, each student has a 5 class limit if full time or 3 if part time. Your class count includes spaces on waitlists.
- A student enrolled in 5 classes cannot ask to hold a spot in a 6th class. You will not be offered your waitlisted class if you already have a full load of classes.
- If you are waiting for a spot in a class, do not sign up for another class at that time. You will not be offered your wait list spot if you already have a class at the same time.
- You may use the add/drop form to remove a student from a waitlist.
- If a class is full, you may fill out the add/drop form to put a student on the waitlist.
- Students cannot be enrolled in one section of a class and on a waitlist for another section of the same class.
