Coppell High School is pleased to be able to offer a wide variety of programs and courses for our learners. Selections during registration indicate how many teachers and sections will be needed for a course. The Master Schedule is developed in the spring prior to the upcoming year. The process allows administrators to plan and to hire for optimum academic strength.

4 When learners are permitted to randomly change schedules, teachers and classrooms are not effectively utilized. As a result, all learners are affected. Even the most effective planning is compromised. Very seldom does a single course change affect only one course. Careful selections benefit everyone. Thank you for being a crucial part of our educational team as we work together for academic excellence. Registration Parent and learner informational meetings will be held during spring registration. Learners will be guided through course selection during individual conferences to confirm course selection. Learners who do not submit a Course Verification Form will have a schedule arranged for them by their counselor according to their academic needs and/or graduation plan.
