Course Request Guide
Click here to go to the Course Request Guide. This website provides information about graduation requirements, courses available at HERH, as well as individual course descriptions.
Course Request Information Sessions
Course Request information sessions will happen in classes prior to March Break. These information sessions will provide students in grade 9-11 with a personalized credit check, and an education planning guide. Students will have the opportunity to gain understanding of graduation requirements and selecting courses according to student interests and post secondary plans. Students are advised to review the course selection website carefully so they can make informed choices for their academic future. It is critical that all requests made by students accurately reflect graduation requirements, personal interests, and needs. Knowledgeable and responsible choices by students will help to assure that your school year will be successful.

Online course requests open on Monday, March 17, 2025 and close on Thursday, April 17, 2025. All current HERH students who plan to attend HERH in 2025-2026 must complete the online course requests.

Course changes will not be made in September 2025 unless:
The scheduling process has resulted in an incomplete schedule.
A course and its prerequisite are in reverse order on a student's schedule.
A course is scheduled for which a credit has already been granted.
A student did not pass a required course and must retake it.
Student request was not granted due to a conflict with other courses.
A potential graduate lacks a required course to complete graduation requirements.
A student is scheduled in a course without the recommended prerequisite course.
A potential graduate is able to complete graduation requirements in a single semester.
Student's post-secondary plans have changed.
Course changes in September will not start until the third day of classes. Please ensure you select your courses carefully to limit the need for course changes.
