Individual class schedules will be posted as they are created. Please check your Brightspace course shell for more information.

Synchronous classes begin the week of Sept 22-26 and end the week of June 8-12. There are no classes scheduled during the following weeks:

Nov 3-7: HCOS staff meetings
Dec 24-Jan 2: Christmas break
Jan 19-23: Report card writing for teachers
Mar 16-27: Spring break
April 27-May 1: HCOS Connect

Please see the Grade 5-9 Synchronous Courses and Synchronous Courses 10-12 pages for more information on synchronous course expectations and completion dates.

Some courses have two cohort options on the schedule based on last year's enrollment numbers (e.g., English 9A and English 9B). Please enroll in the course in Encom, then your synchronous teacher will reach out at the beginning of September to determine which section you would like to attend. Cohorts may be combined closer to the start of September if student enrollment is lower than expected.

Due to popular interest, TechLAB courses are divided into two cohorts. Each cohort meets together for 30 minutes as an individual cohort, then 30 minutes with the other cohort in a larger group. For example, a student in TechLAB ~~7/8~~7 Cohort A will meet with Mr Lamden on Tuesdays from 10:30-11:00am, then Cohort B will join from 11:00-11:30am. Cohort B will then continue with Mr Lamden from 11:30am-12:00pm. This allows students to build relationships in smaller groups while still benefitting from large group instruction and discussion times. Once students are enrolled in TechLAB in Encom, Mr Lamden will reach out to let them know which cohort they should attend.
