Student Services News
The first round of course registration for the 24-25 school year is coming to an end. In late April all students will receive an updated teacher recommendation sheet as well as a verification sheet. The verification sheet will need to be signed by a parent/guardian and returned to student services. This is students' ONLY chance at changing their requests based on preferences. Student schedules will not be changed at the start of the new school year, only corrected based on errors.
Students in 10th -12th grades with last names L-Ri: Ms. Peasley has left Wake Forest High School for other opportunities. Students/Parents in that caseload should contact our Dean of Students, Lisette Pike (lpike@wcpss.net) until a new counselor is hired in her place.
