Selecting a Zero Hour

Students must select the Zero Hour Candidate course to be considered for a zero hour class.

In most cases students will only be able to attend 7 classes 0 – 6th hour (7:00 am – 2:16 pm) 1st – 7th hour (7:55 am – 3:14 pm)

If a student has begun a semester with a 0 schedule they may be allowed to change classes as room permits, but they can only choose from courses offered within the alternate time frame that they began the semester,  (0-6th).
