Q&A 


Q:  I can't add a class because it says I need a prerequisite - What should I do?

Counselors

Planning your Classes
Plese contact your current 9th grade counselor for questions about credits you need for graduation, setting up or reviewing your 4 year plan, or help with filling out requests through Skyward.   ​

Skyward

You will use your current Skyward username/password to fill out your course requests for next year. 
If you are new to Riverton High School or not at OHMS or HVMS and have not received your skyward login and/or password please contact the Attendance Office at
​801-256-5812.
The Request Planner documents below are to help you plan the courses you would like to take for next year.   You can download and print the planner based on the grade you will be in next year.

The planners below give you space for 8 credits.  This year you are allowed to choose 1 full credit of alternate courses.  That would be 1 full year class or 2 half year classes.  Please include the alternate class options in your planning process.

Course Request Disclaimer 

Keep in mind, course requests are not the same as building your schedule.  Course requests give Riverton High School administration the opportunity to see what classes students are requesting the most, and build class offerings to reflect course requests.  
Because of this, some classes may only be offered once throughout the day.  We always do our best to ensure that students get the classes they have requested, but just in case we are allowing you to choose 2 alternate classes this year.  We will build a schedule for you and release it before Spring Break.  We will open Arena Scheduling for students to make adjustments, but class changes/adjustments will only be made if there is space in a classroom.
