No School for Students Next Monday and Tuesday
Please Send a Note for Early Pickup
If you are picking your student up early or they drive, please send a note and have your student bring to the Welcome Desk first thing in the morning. Students will be given a pass to leave class and meet you at the front. This helps with class disruptions and gets your child to the front in a timely manner. We truly appreciate your help.
School Pictures
Underclassmen who did not get their picture made will have the opportunity on October 24th. We asked that all students have their picture made for ID purposes and the school yearbook.
Makeup pictures for underclassmen is scheduled for November 30th.
Attendance Makeup
Starting on Tuesday, October 18th we will begin with our after-school tutoring and make-up time. The dates and times are listed below. We will be using room B184 (across from the band room).
There are a few changes this year. First, 1 hour will equal 1 block. Saturdays will be from 8-11. If you attend from 8-11 that will be 3 blocks. For our late arrival students, during the 1st block, you will have the opportunity to work with the Grad Pack. If you are a late arrival student please see the Grad Pack in the Media Center to discuss your schedule with them. If you are an early release student, you will need to see the Grad Pack in the Media Center as well to have them work with your schedule.
Students, will not be able to do tutoring and make up time with individual teachers this year.
When attending tutoring and making up time, students will need to bring work with them. We will have teachers during this time that will be able to assist you with any work that you have.
If you have any questions, please see Mr. Hosfield.
