The program planning process is an important part of our academic year here at McNair. We are very pleased to offer a robust list of course options for our students. Students should be aware that the choices that they make in this process will determine the classes that we offer in our school next year. It is for this reason that we ask students to consider their choices carefully and be sure of their decisions so that we can build the best possible timetable for all students.
The information linked above should help to guide students through this process. Please take note of the important dates listed below.
