Directions to Verify Course Requests for the 2021 – 2022 School Year

To access your child’s course requests for next school year, you will need a Parent Portal Account in Infinite Campus. If you do not have a Parent Portal account, then email Ms. Holloway in the Registrar’s Office at pamela_t_holloway@dekalbschoolsga.org to set one up.

1. Log into Infinite Campus Parent Portal

2. Once you are logged in to Infinite Campus, look to the left-hand side of the screen. If there are menu options then proceed to the next step. If there are not menu options, click on the icon with the three bars in the upper-right hand section of the screen, on the green bar, to the left of “Infinite Campus,” and the menu options should open up.
3. Click More.

4. Look to the right of the menu options and click on Next Year Course Request.

5. The screen that opens up will have 8 course requests for most students who will be in the 10th, 11th, and 12th grades next year. Students who will be in the 9th grade next year will have 10 courses listed, as 9th grade students have two sets of half semester courses.
6. Please read the guidance below that will explain codes, holding codes, and holding titles. Holding codes and titles are temporary codes / titles used to help Infinite Campus schedule students correctly, and they will be changed to the actual course indicated on the chart later on in the process. Please note that some of the holding codes / titles will have a V or VIR at the end of them. These are just holding codes / titles, and the classes will not be virtual; they are just holding codes.
