CJH Weekly Update
Staff - Week of Jan. 13th
Need to Know
It's hard to believe that January is already half over. We have several things that are happening in the next couple of weeks. We have almost hit the half way point for the school year as well, wow. I will be in for the last few observations of 1st semester this week.
With this time of year comes Exams, End of Semester Grading, Schedule Changes, Accommodation Tracking Sheets and Mid Year Reviews. Here are the quick need to knows. We will review at the Staff Meeting as well.
Exam Schedule will be as follows:
Thursday, Jan 23rd - Exams 1, 2, 3
Friday, Jan 24th - Exams 4, 5, 6
Grading Reminders
If a student passes 2 out of 3 (MP1, MP2 and Exam) you need to make sure that their final grade is passing. If it is not, please override and issue the CR. If you have students that you are in need of transfer grades please let the main office know as soon as possible so that we can dig that out for you.
Schedule Changes
Students will not be able to request schedule changes at semester. We are still actively adjusting and balancing classes. We will be good to go soon!
Accommodation Tracking
Tracking Sheets will be due on 1/31. You can drop them in my office when they are complete.
Mid Year Reviews
We will be scheduling Mid Year Reviews in the same way that we did last year. Please plan 30 minutes to discuss your goals and we will make any adjustments needed during that time. Please select a date/time that works best for your schedule. We are scheduling the week of Feb. 3rd and the week of Feb. 10th. This is a week earlier than last year, but I still wanted to stay clear of the first week of a new semester.
