A Prep period is a period where no class is being taken, for both students and teachers. It generally does not refer to zero period and period 8 when they are not being taken.
Obtaining a prep
There are 3 ways to obtain a prep:
Taking classes outside the 1-7 range
By registering for a course during zero period or period 8, a prep is automatically placed during periods 1-7 for the duration of that course. Additionally, each semester in Kickstarter results in a single-semester prep during the following school year.
Athletics
Students who participate in athletics do not need to attend PE, provided that they fill out the proper forms. This is not a full prep, as they must return to PE the day after their final game.
Signing up for the "Prep" course
Students may also take fewer than 7 classes by explicitly requesting the course called "Prep." Each grade has its own minimum number of classes, which excludes preps.
