Drop-Add Policy
Students and parents are responsible for establishing a satisfactory class schedule prior to the start of each term.
Whenever a student changes a class, the new teacher may require the student to make up work from the first day of the term. All schedule change requests must be made via the schedule change request form with parent permission.
Level One - First three days of term: student requests for a schedule change must be made via the Schedule Change Request form and received in the Counseling office by the 3:00 PM of the third (3rd) day of the term.
Level Two - From day four through day eight of each term, the following procedures apply:
A. If the request is initiated by the teacher who feels the student is misplaced and both
the parent and student agree schedule will be changed with no additional approval needed.
B. If the request is initiated by the student or parent the following applies:
- The parent must submit the Schedule Change Request form. The teacher will sign the request indicating approval of the drop. If the teacher disagrees, the following steps will be taken:
- The counselor will schedule a meeting with the student, parent, current teacher and possibly the potential receiving teacher.
- If all parties agree with the change at this meeting, the schedule will be changed with no additional approval needed.
- If all parties do not agree at this meeting, all will provide written input to the principal stating their position regarding the change. The principal will make the final decision.
Occasionally, after day eight, a student may be allowed to change, to a lower level comparable class, on teacher recommendation. Whenever a student changes to a lower level comparable class, the grades to date in the current class will travel to the new class but the student will be responsible on the term test for all work missed in the new class.
Level Three - After day eight, students are committed to completing the class unless a medicallyrelated situation, as verified by the principal, justifies withdrawal. In this case a "W" will be recorded for the marking period and final grades.
The "last day to drop a class" is day eight of each term.
Dual Enrollment
"Dual Enrollment" provides an opportunity for high school students to enroll in college courses while in high school. When a student meets the guidelines established by the Michigan Department of Education, the school will assist with tuition and the student may receive high school and/or college credit for the work. Part of the requirement for approval currently includes taking the PLAN, PSAT or ACT tests.
Qualified students need to meet with their counselor and the principal to fill out required application material in the spring for fall classes and by early December for winter classes. Students taking a fall college class must enroll for Dual Enrollment both fall and winter terms. Students taking a winter college class must enroll for Dual Enrollment both winter and spring terms.

Students may earn Chelsea High School course credit for online courses according to the following guidelines:
- Courses Taken During the Normal School Day & Year: Up to two credits per year may be earned. Credit will only be granted for courses not offered on site at CHS, except in cases of a schedule conflict and as approved by the designated high school administrator.
