GRADING AND ATTENDANCE:
We recently received clear guidance regarding grading and attendance from OSPI and Bethel School District. Please review the slides below, and let us know if you have any questions.
SEL COURSE GRADING:
The student SEL course grades will be converted to a Pass/Incomplete at the conclusion of the course and will be calculated based on weekly attendance. Students will need to be consistently "present" to earn a passing grade. If you receive multiple "tardy" or "absent" marks you may receive an incomplete for the class at the very end. All graded assignments will remain available throughout the school year. If you have any questions, please reach out to Mrs. Berglund (cberglund@bethelsd.org), Mrs. Peterman (kpeterman@bethelsd.org, Mr. Reid (preid@bethelsd.org).
HAVING FAMILY ACCESS OR CANVAS ISSUES?:
Here are a few helpful resources that were requested multiple times last week...

ITEMS LEFT AT SCHOOL or ITEMS THAT NEED TO BE RETURNED:
We will send out specific information regarding the exchange of physical items (iPads, books, locker items, yearbooks, etc) more toward the beginning of June. If your student NEEDS something in order to continue their learning, please contact their advisory teacher and they will set up a plan to pick up the items.
All School Erin Jones Assembly - 5/4 @ 3:00
Spend the Afternoon with Erin Jones!
Students and Families, you are invited to attend an all school assembly with Erin Jones!
Monday, May 4th, 2020 @ 3:00pm – 3:45pm
Click on the link below to log into the assembly hosted by Erin Jones. Ms. Jones will be helping us understand how our personal journeys - the good stuff and bad stuff, the success and the failure – are leading us in a direction. By unpacking our stories and facing them, Ms. Jones will challenge us to get a vision for our purpose and passion to help us plan for our future – this summer and beyond. There will be room for 1,000 participants shared between SMS and CMMS.
It is helpful to show up (virtually) approximately 5 minutes early.
Hope to see you all there!
