Did You Know?
The pine trees along the south side of our school property were donated and planted in honor of Kim Kessinger. Kim Kessinger was an Akron School Board President and great supporter of the Akron School District and community. Kim passed away over ten years ago but the impact he made on so many people, lives on today through the people he touched through his support and generosity. The trees in his honor were donated, planted, and have been cared for by Rick Glosson, another great supporter of our school and community.
Eligibility for Middle School and High School Students
Eligibility will begin next week Monday, September 12th.
Eligibility is pulled each week for middle school and high school students on Thursdays. Eligibility determines if a student will be able to participate in a sport or activity (FFA, FBLA, FCCLA) for that week.
The Akron grading scale is:
100%-90% - A
89%-80% - B
79%-70% - C
69%-65% - D
65%-0 - F
If a student has two Ds, two Fs, or a combination of a D & F, he/she will be considered ineligible for the week. Mrs. Weers will send a text and email to parents of students that are considered ineligible. Beginning this year, there will be no watch list notification sent out. We encourage parents to access Alma regularly to check your child(ren)'s grades.
