HYBRID SCHEDULE FOR JANUARY 7 - February 2
PSAT: Rescheduled
The PSAT is rescheduled for Tuesday, January 26th.
Whitewater will administer the PSAT 8/9 to 9th grade students (Class of 2024) and the PSAT/NMSQT to 10th grade students (Class of 2023).
SENIORS AND JUNIORS NOT TESTING WILL NOT COME TO SCHOOL ON THURSDAY. They have a digital learning day; teachers will provide asynchronous lessons for students to complete at home instead of coming to school on January 26th.
If you plan on checking your student out after the testing session, please complete the January 26th PSAT check out form by Sunday, January 24th. All check out requests will be verified by the WHS attendance office before a student is permitted to leave campus. Students checking out are still responsible for their assigned asynchronous lessons.
For more information about the test please see the links below.
JUNIORS & VIRTUAL STUDENTS who were registered for the October test are automatically registered for the January test date. Juniors and virtual students who did not register for the October PSAT date can sign up by January 14th to be placed on a waitlist in the event testing slots become available.
WHS Current Schedule
Fayette Virtual Academy Students - Spring Semester 2021
In an effort to improve student engagement and accountability, expectations for students have been more clearly defined. These expectations include assignment deadlines, attendance, and required Zoom sessions. Please read the attached document
In the virtual setting, student success is greatly improved when parents regularly check on the student's progress in all courses. This can be done through the Schoology parent portal and the Edgenuity parent portal. If you have questions on how to access these portals, please contact the Fayette Virtual Academy by email at fvasupport@mail.fcboe.org.
High school counselors are working on scheduling through Friday, Jan 15. Grades are being finalized today, and course failures in the fall semester may lead to schedule changes for the spring semester.
