Summer Assignments
Our staff talked at length about summer assignments this past week. We are all in agreement that we don't want a summer assignment to be required and potentially be a "semester killer". We also want to give students voice and choice. We're exploring a few different ideas at the present time and have established a sub-committee to develop an end product and a reference list for parents of computer resources and recommended reads per grade level. You can anticipate receiving this by mid-month.

Student Dress Code
Over the past week, the staff worked on Non-Negotiables for our building. Dress Code is one of the items we'd like more student voice on before we make a final decision.
STUDENTS ONLY (not parents), please complete THIS FORM to provide input about our Dress Code at Ballyshannon. Students will log in with their Boone County email login to complete this survey.
