Online Course Registration
Online Course Registration 25-26
Welcome Cleveland STEM HS Freshman and New Students
Please explore this page as well as the Incoming Students page for more information about events and opportunities for students and families. Please contact the Counseling Center with any questions. We are so excited to welcome our new students this fall! We have some important information we want to share with families regarding class registration.
Below you will find information about student pathway classes and how students can register for their classes for the 2025-26 school year. Students will only be selecting their elective classes for next year. Please read the online instructions carefully. Students will be making their pathway selection. This is a very important decision, because your student will be taking classes related to their choice for their 9th -11th grade years while they are at Cleveland. Below is a brief description of the pathways so you and your student can make an informed decision. For more information, please visit our the Course Registration Handbook.
- School of Biomedical and Life Sciences (SOLS): This pathway allows students to explore topics in Life Sciences, such as Applied Molecular Biology (9th), Physiology (10th), Biomedical Science (11th) and UW Biology 100 (12th).
- School of Engineering and Design (SOED): This pathway allows students to explore topics in Engineering, such as Engineering Design and Development 1 & 2 (9th), Intro to Engineering 1 & 2 (10th) and Principles of Engineering 1 & 2 (11th).
- School of Computer Science (SOCS): This pathway allows students to explore topics in Computer Science such as Intro to Programming/Immersive Media (9th), AP Computer Science Principles (10th), AP Computer Science (11th), with the option to take Projects in Computer Science in 12th Grade.

Current Grades 9, 10, 11 Online Course Registration
The Online Registration window for current CHS students in Grades: 9, 10, 11 begins on January 29, 2025. The online class registration portal in the Source will open January 29 where students will pick their courses for the 2025-2026 school year. On Wednesday Jan. 29 Counselors gave a registration lesson in advisory to help students learn to use the portal and select classes for next year. The attachments and links below are guides to help students pick and register for classes. Counselors met with students individually in Humanities from Feb. 3-14, to help ensure that all students have filled out the online class registration and it is aligned with their High School graduation requirements.
Registration Materials and Steps
- The online registration directions link: Course Registration Directions 2025-2026 (view on the Family Newsletter)
- Here is the Registration Handbook 25-26 (view on the Family Newsletter) so that you can read more about courses that are available.
- Watch the SPS Online Registration Video presentation. Please note that this is the SPS video and students actually will need 8 credits at Cleveland instead of the 6 mentioned in this video. Also note that students are only picking their elective classes and science (current 10th and 11th graders). Required courses (humanities, pathway, math, 10th grade science will be added in for them by Ms. Tagupa)
- Students log in to the Source and complete course registration with a guardian prior to Feb 3, or at the latest, on the day counselors will go into their humanities class. If a course is yearlong, make sure to select both A and B or 1 and 2 to ensure they are registering for both semesters. Example: for Chinese 3, select Chinese 3a AND Chinese 3 B. Or for AP Chemistry, Select AP Chem 1 AND AP Chem 2
