What you need to know today!
Senior Privilege Stickers
Senior Privilege stickers for the 2nd 9-week period will be handed out today, during both lunches.
End of Semester - What you need to know!
- ✅ Take a quick look at your grades and attendance in Infinite Campus so you know where you stand.
- 📝 Final Assessments (or Final Gradable Experience) are coming up in all classes, so now is a great time to review, ask questions, and prepare.
- 📊 Final Assessments count as a Minor Assessment (35%), making them an important opportunity to demonstrate what you've learned.
- 📅 Be sure to check the Assessment Week schedule on the school website or under Our School > Bell Schedules so you know when your assessments are scheduled.
- ⏰ Final Assessments cannot be taken early, so plan ahead and be present.
- 🎒 Attendance matters! Students are expected to be at school during the last two weeks of the semester (December 7-18). Pre-approved absence request for this period will not be approved.
- ✅ Students who do not have a recovery opportunity on Friday, December 18 may remain home that day. Review the schedule for details.
