Public Middle School Students
Those coming from a public school within the New Hanover County school system will register for high school courses at their middle school with the help of their middle school counselor. Please contact your middle school counselor for details as all schools handle this process differently.
The courses your student selects will automatically transfer over to us.
**For those public school students who may be accepted into Hoggard through open choice: Your middle school will send us a paper copy of the courses you wish to take at Hoggard if you are accepted here on open choice. There is no need to meet to get this sorted out. It will be done automatically.

We cannot accommodate individual meeting requests with potential students/parents at this time as we are serving our current students.
Please plan to attend the Rising 9th grade parent zoom TBD (in Feb '21). During this info session, you will have listen to a presentation from our counselors, and ask any questions you may have.
