Semester Exams Starting Monday, December 14th.
- Exams will be virtual except for students who are contacted by their teacher to test on campus. We will select students to attend in person if it is agreed that in person testing would benefit the child.
- Students have a completion window for their exams. We are using exams to show semester mastery. Please ensure your child(ren) is logged into Schoology and completing their exams all week.
- If your child is struggling, this is an essential opportunity to get support and back on track, receive credit, and positively move towards 2nd semester.

Important Attendance Information
Your child can have no more than 8 absences in order to gain full credit. Regardless if a student earns a 70 or higher, he/she will not earn credit if they have more than 8 absences in the class. Please take a look at this video and guide to check your child’s attendance. Contact your child’s teacher for more information or questions about absences in that class.
Here is a quick video showing how to check grades and attendance in HAC.
