Important notes regarding appeals:

All requests must be submitted between 8:00am on February 27 and 3:00pm on March 6 to be considered.  You will be informed of a decision by March 26, 2025.

Before submitting this form, please review "The Appeal Process" section in the THS Program of Studies.

Course level placement recommendations are made for each student based on the assessment of our professional faculty.  The faculty recommendations are based upon the student's demonstrated educational performance and needs and the teachers' knowledge of the expectations of the courses in their departments.

Course level placement recommendations may be appealed by completing and submitting this form.  All appeals must be submitted between 8:00am on February 27 and 3:00pm on March 6.  

PLEASE READ:
Prior to filing an appeal, parents and/or students should speak with the teacher who made the original recommendation.  It is critical to garner insight into the rationale for the original recommendation prior to appealing the recommendation.

Parents and students must be aware of several important ramifications if an appeal is submitted and if the request for the appeal is granted.  For example:

*Once the school year begins, class size limits and other considerations may prevent a student from changing classes.  If a change is possible, it may involve rearranging the entire schedule and result in undesirable outcomes.

*Withdrawal from a full-year course after the end of the first week after marking period 1 interim progress reports (as opposed to moving into the same course at a different level) will  result in a "Withdrawn" grade being recorded on the student's permanent transcript for that course.  Please see "Scheduling and Level Changes" section in the Program of Studies.

Please complete the requested information in this electronic form and submit within the dates described above.  Note: School personnel will use Tenafly High School email addresses to contact students.  It is the responsibility of the student to check this email address regularly as appointment times may be communicated via email.
