Scheduling in a paperless society

The X2 Scheduling Portal was opened today allowing students from grades 8-11 to choose classes for next year.  Steven Bottari, Director of Guidance, and I were able to visit both the Locke and Marshall today to watch their presentations to the students and answer any questions from the students.  The guidance counselors at both schools were terrific, not based solely on their knowledge of the system, but their genuine concern to ensure the students had a good understanding of the process and the importance of selecting the appropriate courses for next year. These counselors as well as those at the high school will be tremendous assets for the students going through the process for the first time.  Although I anticipate some "bumps" this year, our goal is to provide schedules for students before the end of the school year.

Students/parents can access X2 at https://ma-billerica.myfollett.com/aspen/logon.do

The scheduling window will close on Monday, March 31 at midnight.
