Fwd: Things to consider before emailing the program office or ME about AP courses
by Ingram Realdina 22 Aug '20

Hello again parents and guardians, So sorry for multiple emails, however, like the program office and as per usual during programming we have many questions coming in. Please see below before sending in a question — these are answers! I’ve answered some notes for parents in RED. Best, Dina Ms. Dina Ingram Director of Family Engagement Stuyvesant High School 347-224-6673 cell ringram3(a)schools.nyc.gov<mailto:ringram3@schools.nyc.gov> www.stuy.edu<http://www.stuy.edu> Read my Blog<https://talos.stuy.edu/hera/blog/feed> on talos.stuy.edu<http://talos.stuy.edu> Follow Stuyvesant on Facebook<https://www.facebook.com/StuyNYC/> @StuyNYC or Twitter<https://twitter.com/StuyNY> @StuyNY “This email message is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential or privileged information.

Sorry for the second email, but I've been answering a lot of emails. It's been flooding in faster than I can handle. Here are some things you should really keep in mind: 1) The Program Office does not determine who gets into an AP course or not. The department chairs make that decision. The student should be the person who reaches out to the Department Chair with questions. Keep in mind that they are not working until 8/31. Many are checking emails, but not required, and the frequency may not be as quickly as you are accustomed or prefer. 2) The "Current Requests" is the list of AP courses you got into that I will be trying to schedule you for along with other graduation requirements. Unfortunately, if it is blank, it means you did not get into the AP courses you applied for. 3) You applied for a course application and it was approved. You're wondering why the course is not on your list. If you recall, we stated that the course application was to give you permission to select the course during course selection. Students had to use this because they didn't meet requirements to have certain courses appear as options when they made their selections. It is not guaranteeing you a seat. The program office issued emails that were sent to students and families on the definition of ‘approval’ and the right to apply for a course. These are archived in the Document Hub as well in the Program Changes folder which carries all files of instructions. You will need to toggle to the 19-20 school year in the upper right of Talos to refer to them now. 4) You are supposed to consider "Dropping" a course. This is not for Adding or Swapping as I already mentioned in the first email. Take your time to consider this before jumping ahead... I'm not sure who you're racing against... So slow down and breathe... I will try to get to all your emails. -- -- Stuyvesant High School Program Office 345 Chambers St. New York, NY 10282 (212) 312 4800 --
