Spring Semester 2022 Deadlines and Important information
Timeliness matters. Last year due to COVID cohort groups and the shortened school day, we extended some deadlines. This year the deadlines correspond with the end of the semester.
This is the final push! To help students, we have a few tutoring sessions that will be available for students and more sessions will be added as the need arises, so please keep checking the document for updates. Students have this information in their Advisory Google Classroom, in their REAL Platform announcements page, and in the Panther Nation newsletter. Take advantage of this opportunity! It's for you.
Special note about REAL Platform Classes:
1) Completing all PFAs has always been required to receive credit in the class.
2) Completing projects at 70% average of cog skills is required to receive credit in the class.
3) The blue progress line will end May 27 and anything not completed will turn red. Don’t worry, you still have until June 2, 2:30pm to submit work and take PFAs.
Important details for May 31 - June 2
- Buses will run on their normal schedule (3:30pm) on Tuesday and Wednesday, and at 12:30pm on Thursday.
- All passing periods are 5 minutes with the exception of the long passing period between Period 1/4/7 and 2/5/8 which is 15 minutes. 2nd Chance Breakfast will be available during that passing.
- The commons will be open as a study hall should a student not need to be in a particular class period.
- The End-Of-Year Schedule is intended to provide students an opportunity to improve a demonstration of learning for specific (or multiple) standards or course elements without harm to their existing score/grade. DOLs will be structured to include all individual standards/course elements for the semester. However, students will work with their teachers to mutually determine which standards or course elements need improvement.
- If a student has a 3 or above in the Standards Based Gradebook or an A in the REAL Platform, then he/she has already met the proficiency for the course and therefore is exempted from attending the End-Of-Year class period for that class.

Coreena Albaugh by Breah Clark
All around Woodland Park High School, there are many great students aspiring to turn into great citizens of the world someday, each with unique interests and future pathways. Through different clubs, sports, classes, and other extracurricular opportunities offered here, students are given the chance to determine who they are and how they want to live after high school. Coreena Albaugh is one of these students.
Coreena Albaugh is a junior at WPHS. She finds a great interest in music; not only does she enjoy making music outside of school, but she is also the low brass section leader for the school’s marching band. Pep band is something she is a part of too. She has played a variety of different instruments; piano since she was in elementary school, trumpet since she was in sixth grade, tuba since she was in seventh grade, and ukulele since she was in ninth grade. Coreena told me she most likes making ambient music because it can portray emotions without words. She likes to draw in her free time as well. More specifically, she likes making portraits with charcoal.
After high school, Coreena would like to go to a 4 year college to study computer science and cyber security. Her end goal is to obtain a job within the government. She is already working towards this goal too, as she is a part of the high school program through Pikes Peak Community College, Career Start, and is in the cyber security section. Also, she was recently accepted into an FBI camp she plans to attend over the summer. This camp is intended to give teens an opportunity to both learn and have hands-on experience when it comes to cyber security.
Overall, Coreena Albaugh is an example of one of the many great students here at WPHS already working to pursue her dreams after high school.
