No online registrations for high school credit courses.  To register for any high school credit course, students must have prior written approval from their school counselor and the department head. Click here to download registration form. 

No refunds or credits will be given for withdrawals from high school academic credit courses.  Parent must initial on the  registration form acknowledging that there are no refunds or credits for withdrawals from high school academic credit courses.

The determination as to whether any credit summer school class will run is made by Westport Continuing Education, based on enrollment. It is therefore recommended that students enroll in as timely a manner as possible.

If a student misses more than 2 days of class for any reason, credit will not be granted for the course. Students who have lost credit will have the opportunity to appeal to have their credit reinstated. To appeal, please complete the Principal's Hearing Request Form from the Main Office. The deadline for appeals is August 15.  


Interim progress reports will be available to students and parents; final report cards will be mailed to student's home and guidance department. Duplicate reports may be forwarded to other schools at the request of parents and/or student.
