DB ACCESS NIGHT
Dobyns-Bennett has scheduled AP/ACCESS Night for January 28th @ 5:30 p.m. in the Pridemore Theater. This event will provide information to students and parents about EPSO opportunities at Dobyns-Bennett High School in the way of Advanced Placement, Dual Enrollment, and Dual Credit opportunities. (Although there are additional ways to earn EPSO's at DB, we want to communicate these before registration begins on January 29th!) Other opportunities will be shared with students within their Program of Study area and during sessions which will be held Fall 2019. I wanted to communicate this date with you so you can place it on your calendar and begin to communicate the information with parents.
Once the TNDOE shares with us the "EPSO Ready" data file, we will be able to encourage students and communicate directly with them what has been recommended as potential EPSO's based on their TVAAS data in addition to their ASPIRE performance.
As always, DB wants to continue to push students to the next level and challenge them to be the best they can educationally. We are looking forward to sharing these opportunities with parents and students January 28th!
If you have any questions please let me know.
Thanks so much!
