Principal's Message
Comet Nation,
This Friday, February 26th, students will not be in the building as our faculty and staff receive the COVID-19 vaccine. We encourage students to take advantage of this independent study opportunity as it is right before the last day of the second trimester. Students should use this Friday to catch up on assignments. The last day of the second trimester is Monday, March 1st.
The third trimester starts on Tuesday, March 2nd and will be a Remote Learning day for all students. Both eCampus and onCampus teachers will email students ahead of time the Zoom link and directions for the first day of class. Students should check ParentPortal for their third trimester schedule and their Amherst email for communication from their new teachers about the Remote Learning day.
As we head into the third trimester, we are preparing for end-of-year activities. As plans are finalized for prom, award banquets, and graduation we will communicate them out to the community. Each end-of-the-year activity is a fluid situation and I thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.
Thank you again for your continued support and do not hesitate to call the main office with any comments or questions you have as we continue through the 2020-2021 school year!
Go Comets,
Mr. Tellier
