Dear Cowboy Community,
Today marks the end of the first quarter of school. At our 9th/10th Grade Class meeting, we talked about how important it is for students to focus on their grades in the second quarter, as their goal should be earning 3.5 credits every semester to ensure they are on track for graduation.
With the end of the quarter here, that means Family Conferences are right around the corner. On Wednesday, October 29th, we will have a Open House format, with no appointment necessary. On Wednesday, November 5th, we will have appointments available, with a sign up in Google Calendar.
Parents and Guardians of Seniors, please remember Ms. Vogan is hosting a Financial Aid Night on Wednesday, October 22nd from 5pm-6pm.
