    Course Selection

    Beginning this week, counselors will be available on campus to support current 6th to 11th grade students in beginning the course selection process for the 2025-2026 school year. During this period, students will utilize SchooLinks, our course planning software, to develop a three-year academic plan for middle school or a four-year plan for high school, with an emphasis on selecting courses for the upcoming school year.
     
    Parents can create a SchooLinks account using the primary email associated with their Skyward account. Below, you’ll find detailed instructions on account setup and how to approve your student’s course plan, along with a helpful video guide.
     
    Step 1: Claim Your Parent Account in SchooLinks
     
    Step 2: View Your Student’s Course Plan
     
    Step 3: Approve Your Student’s Course Plan
     
    For a comprehensive list of courses offered, course descriptions and additional academic planning tools, please visit our website https://www.pisd.edu/coursecatalogs.
     
    If you have any questions, please reach out to your student’s campus counselor for assistance.
