Counseling
Counselors
A counselor is assigned to you and will work with you concerning your academics, vocational and career information, college and scholarship counseling, personal challenges, testing, written recommendations, and references, etc. Though the school personnel will attempt to locate and correct any errors, it is the students’ and their parents’ responsibility to select the courses, keep copies of records and plan their schedule to meet all requirements for graduation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Is there a minimum GPA needed or ACT score required for DE courses?
SELU requires a minimum GPA of 2.5 or higher, ACT or Pre-ACT sub score of >18 English and >19 Math are required.
Is there a cost to take DE or AP courses at FHS?
Yes, our DE courses are offered at a reduced tuition cost of $275.00 per 3 credit hour courses with SELU, however, we offer a grant that covers up to 12 credit hours per student per academic year if funding is provided. Additional fees may be required (i.e.: technology fee for all MATH courses). Sociology and Theatre are NOT covered by this grant and must be paid in full to enroll. If a student withdraws from any SELU course the $275.00 grant assistance fee is to be repaid to the district fund, collected at the school site. AP examination fee $99.00 per exam. NTCC fees differ.
How do I apply for a DE Academic Course from SELU?
If you are a first time DE student, you are required to create an account on the SELU website. Ms. Wortmann, our School to Work Coordinator, will be able to provide additional information.
How do I apply for any DE CTE course offered by NTCC?
A two-sided paper application is given to you by your FHS teacher to be completed in ink, signed, and returned to be officially enrolled.
What happens if I decide to “Drop or Withdraw” and/or leave FHS while enrolled in any DE course?
Only your grade level counselor can honor this request. Parents or guardians will sign the drop request and payment of the entire tuition cost of $275.00 or more is collected. Your official college transcript will show the course as a “W” no grade or numerical value earned.
What should I expect from either taking an AP course or a DE course?
Faster paced expectations, time management skills, daily studying, independent work outside the school setting, and challenging assessments.
Will my DE course be accepted by another institution upon graduating from FHS?
Our contract with SELU guarantees that all academic credits earned as a DE high school student will transfer to all public universities in the state of Louisiana. Our courses contracted with NTCC are subject to review for transfer outside of each identified institution.
