The Quill 01-08-2020
Creating Opportunities Together
A Thought or Two From Mr. Nieslanik
Welcome to 2020! Hard to believe that we are quickly approaching finals and the second semester. We wanted to get this edition of the Quill in your hands early this week as I am holding my January Principal's Chat on Thursday, January 9th at 6:30 in the Large Community Room. The topic this month may interest many of you. I will be sharing information on post- high school exploration and planning, giving hints on researching and learning about best options, and talking about timelines while in high school to prepare for what comes next!
Semester Finals are right around the corner. Each class period only meets five more times before the final. Please work with your student/s to ensure they have work completed and are prepared to take their final.
For graduating seniors and their families, our next class meeting is on January 10th. At this meeting we will be taking the class picture and beginning to share about graduation. After that we will begin sharing information to families about specifics around graduation, number of tickets, and expectations in April. If your child is short of credits, or in need of additional supports an administrator or counselor will be reaching out once the second semester begins.
Thank you for all you do, and thank you for partnering with us at SRHS!
Until next time,
David

Inclement Weather Information
When the weather gets snowy or icy, school schedules may be affected. The District generally posts the announcement of delayed school opening or school closure by 5:15 a.m. All Portland Metro area media outlets announce the information on TV newscasts and online.
The District makes decisions based on the ability to operate school buses safely; the ability for students and parents to get to school safely, and the ability for employees to get to work safely and on time. The decision that is made will be for the entire District. As always, parents may choose to make different decisions based on their particular location.
The District will notify parents and staff via SchoolMessenger with a Non-School Hours Emergency message. Please manage your communication preferences in SchoolMessenger InfoCenter.
