End of the 5th Six Weeks

As a reminder, the 5th Six Weeks ends next Thursday, April 14th, meaning as of today there are only 39 school days left.

Students need to ensure that they are passing and attending classes so that they do not lose credit.

Credits are lost when a student has excessive unexcused absences and tardies. Talk to your student about the importance of attending and arriving to classes on time.


Students need 6 specific credits to be promoted to the next grade level.

Relational Capacity

As testing fast approaches, I find it important to take a moment to reflect on all the progress students have made this year and celebrate them! This includes disconnecting from electronics and playing traditional board games.

Mrs. Linda Tolman

My name is Mrs. Tolman and I am the 9th Grade AVID teacher. I come from a family of educators who firmly believed that an education never ends.
During the summer of 2021, I was certified as a Yoga Instructor with Breathe for Change. A program that is designed to create Social Emotional Learning Facilitators and teaches how to guide trauma informed yoga. We have successfully been able to bring yoga into our campus and currently offer five yoga classes before and after school. It has been amazing to see the practice come to fruition on our campus.
I have completed my Masters of Science Education in Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment, along with the Integrated Leadership Principal Preparation Program.

I am currently pursuing my Doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction. I am also serving as a Teach Plus intern for the 2021-2022 school year.
