Principal's Post
Dear Parents and Guardians,
MAP testing went well Monday and Tuesday. Teachers will conference with students over the next week to set goals for Winter MAP. We will continue make-up testing next week due to the State mandate that requires we test 85% of our student body. This includes our Rock Hill Virtual Academy students.
If your child has an average of a D or F in any class, they should have received a progress report this week. Please take time this weekend to check your child's grades since we are at the mid-point of quarter 1. Together we can ensure all of our students are successful! If you have questions or concerns please reach out to your child's teachers or counselor.
Monday, students that wanted to participate in a "stair climb" to honor the first responders who lost their lives 20 years ago during the 9/11 tragedy, joined their teammates to walk approximately 110 flights of stairs. The hallways were lined with the names of those first responders. For more information visit https://www.firehero.org/events/9-11-stair-climbs-2/.
Our 6th graders were able to listen to Coach Roddey, a local firefighter, talk about his experience as a first responder prior to participating. Team 8-2 created their own American flag during this time as well.
Lastly, it was a great week for our volleyball and football teams. Come out and support our student-athletes when you can. See below to purchase tickets.
Have a wonderful weekend and we hope to see lots of parents participating in Tuesday's SIC meeting!
Warm Regards,
Heather Andrus

Documentation that your child has received the Tdap vaccine will need to be provided to the school. If your child still needs to get the immunization, you must get an appointment with your pediatrician or seek out a clinic to arrange for the immunization. If your child has not had the vaccine by the start of 2021-2022 school year, he/she will have 30 days to get the vaccine. After the 30th day, if your child still has not had the vaccine your child will not be permitted to attend school until the school receives documentation that the vaccine has be given.
