Happy Monday, Bronchos!


There are only two full weeks of this trimester left. Trimester 1 will end on Tuesday, November 24th, which is a half day. All coursework, including the final exam for each course, for Trimester 1 should be submitted by 11:30 am on Tuesday, November 24th.


Families, please continue to check in with your student(s) about their academic standings, including their grades, course progress, and any missing gradable activities. We have Connection sessions for our students in all of four core subjects and in Spanish. We encourage our students to take advantage of these one-on-one sessions, whether in-person or virtually, to get the support they need to be successful in their courses.


Have a great week!


Sincerely,

Krystle Voegel
