Sign ups for Parent-Teacher Conferences have now closed. If you have any questions about conferences you have signed up for, please contact the course teacher. We look forward to welcoming you on Monday afternoon/evening and all day Tuesday!

Enrollment in this year’s Honors Challenge has officially closed. Students enrolled in an Honors Challenge will see “HP” for “Honors Pending” on progress reports until successful completion of their Honors Challenge in June. If a student wishes to drop an Honors Challenge, they should speak with the teacher of that course.

Grades for mid-semester 1 will close on November 5, with progress reports available on PowerSchool by 3:00 PM on November 13. This interim period allows teachers to finalize grades, and we encourage students and families to review assignment scores and communicate with teachers regarding any questions or concerns. Course scores are rolling, and the progress report reflects learning progress up to that date, while final scores will be communicated on transcripts. Additionally, at the end of each reporting period (November, January, April), students with off-campus privileges and their parents will be notified of any changes to their status based on academic performance and adherence to the student handbook.

Photographers will be in the theatre from 7:30–10:30 AM

Retake Day is for:

• New or transfer students
• Anyone who missed the first picture day
• Anyone unhappy with their original photo

If retaking, bring your original photo package to exchange with the photographer, replacements are free of charge.

To register for an AP Exam, a student must:

1. Join the MyAP Classroom by logging into MyAP and entering the join code provided by their teacher

2. Submit payment, via MySchoolBucks or via check ($99 per exam, payable to Souhegan High School with AP Exam in the Memo) to Michelle Paul in Student Services.

Juniors who took the PSAT on October 22: results are anticipated to be available within 2-4 weeks following testing. Students typically get notified via email and, if they opted into the Big Future App and shared their mobile number, via text.

Students have two ways to check their results when they are available:

1. Through the Big Future App, if they opted in - or -

2. Through the College Board website (https://studentscores.collegeboard.org) *

*Students will need a College Board account to check their scores. If they already created one in the past (ex. In an AP Class, or if they checked their PSAT 10 score through the web) they should avoid creating a duplicate. We encourage students to establish College Board accounts with a personal email address, so that their access is not interrupted if they need it post-graduation.
