CL&I Mini Courses

Crochet Mini Course Video Help:

Sign Up for Mini Courses is currently closed. Check back at the beginning of next semester.

6th Grade courses will take place during Advisory.

7th and 8th Grade courses will take place in homeroom.

Students may only sign up for one course per semester.

Once course dates are established, students will receive a pass with the dates of their course.

Students must keep the pass for the entire semester.

On occasion, a course may be cancelled for the day due to an unforeseen event in the CL&I.

Students who are behind on homework are not to attend mini courses until they have permission from their advisory or homeroom teacher.

Any misbehaviors during a mini-course will result in dismissal from the course.

All courses will take place in the CL&I.
