Clipper Nation,

First term report cards went live on Friday. Students will receive a paper copy of their report card on Monday in their 5th period class. If you have not done so already, please talk to your students about their grades.


Keep in mind that any student who completed the term without recovering their absences for any absences beyond four unexcused days received all "E"s on their report card. If your student needs to make up missed days, please ensure they attend Step Up sessions. Details about Step Up are provided below. The last day to recover attendance for the first term will be November 26th.


As we move forward, please encourage your students to attend school every day unless they have fewer or are extremely sick. Attending is the best way to ensure success at school. Please check out the Arrive to Thrive video.
