Changing Learning Options
If you are interested in changing your student's learning option for Semester 2, please complete the following form with your intention for next semester. The form will take submissions until January 14, 2021. Please take the time to discuss the options with your student and understand the option will be for the entire semester. In addition, it is important to note that not all classes will be offered to full blended students and some schedules will have to be changed. Counselors will be reviewing student schedules and contacting students who will need to select other classes due to their learning option. As a reminder, no students will be able to switch to the A/B options.
If you are pleased with your current option, no form needs to be completed. Students will keep their current option unless the form is completed.
UPDATED Keystone Testing Information
The Winter session of state-mandated Keystone Exams at Dover Area High School has been delayed January 14-22, 2021. The following students will take a winter 2021 exam:
- Students currently enrolled and will complete Algebra, Biology, or English II in Fall 2020
Retesters deemed necessary
Keystone Refresher Courses have been created in Schoology for students to use to help review.
- Algebra - 9RGHJ-JQHGM
- Biology - QZPC-85DB-V6WCR
- Literature - S6K7-SXS9-D2R55
Students in grades 9 and 10 who are not testing will be working on asynchronous assignments during this time in a non testing room in the building. Seniors and juniors who are not testing are eligible to arrive at school by HR on each day of testing, if they have their own transportation. As a reminder to any Junior or Senior who may be failing, this is an excellent time to utilize a quiet place to work and get caught up on back work or study for the upcoming finals.
