Beginning in the 2024-2025 school year, South Dearborn High School will operate on a semester model, with a 7-class period day. Each semester will be 18 weeks long, divided into two quarters of approximately 9 weeks each. There will be a 20-minute Advisory Period once per week, normally on Mondays. Guidance counselors will work with students on course selection each Spring, beginning with classroom visits in February, followed by one-on-one meetings to finalize course selections in April. Parents are invited to participate as desired in these one-on-one meetings.
Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors will complete their course scheduling with the counselors based on their position in the alphabet:
Grades 9 - 11, Last names beginning with A - K : Mrs. Kristen Selmeyer [kristen.selmeyer@sdcsc.k12.in.us]
