Second Semester Registration
December 1st - December 31st 

HERO Second Semester Class schedule and registration will begin on December 1 - December 31.  Registrations received after December 31 will have a "late fee" added to each class that you are registering for. Remember that all first semester accounts must be paid in full before registration for second semester is accepted.

First semester will end on Tuesday, January 14.  Second Semester begins on Monday January 20, 2020.  All one semester courses are marked with a * in front of the class name.  If your child is registered for a class that runs both semesters, you will need to register them again for those classes for second semester. 

The $50 student registration fee is a one time per school year cost.  If your child is currently registered for a class that is marked "FULL" , your child's spot has been reserved for them for second semester.  However, you will need to register them for that class for second semester.  There are a few classes that are offered as a full year course but students may enter them mid-year.
