Bio & Chem as a Freshman?

Hi. I will be starting high school in a few months, and was wondering if it would be at all feasible to take both biology and chemistry during my freshman year. I’m not even sure that my school would allow it, because only about 60 students out of 300-400 are going to be allowed to take bio in the ninth grade (most will retake physical science), let alone chem. However, if I were to somehow find a way to take both, would it be a terrible idea? I only ask because I have a genuine interest in both subjects, and would love to be able to understand some more basic chemistry when I read studies on genetics/molecular biology, which I often do. Thanks for any answers!
