Dear Students and Parents,
Congratulations Operation
Smile for hosting an outstanding ULEAD conference this weekend! Local students
were on campus to learn more about the organization and to develop skills that
could serve them in their own clubs and upcoming missions. Here are some photos
from the event.
Congratulations Pranav for concluding his Passion Project by sharing with our 4th and 5th-grade students! Mr. Connelly could not help but Tweet his excitement!
Exam
Week Procedures
Here are some important dates
and procedures to keep in mind.
Teachers will use class time
from December 10 - 13 for one of two functions: (1) to engage students with
alternative semester exams such as practical, project or portfolio based
assessments or (2) to review material in preparation for paper/pencil exams the
following week.
Paper/pencil exams will run
from December 16 - 20 as per this schedule. Students are only required to be on campus
for their scheduled exams. As such, they are able to leave early or arrive late
as per their personal exam schedule. Families who wish for their students to
remain on campus for the full school day should alert the high school
office.
Please note that exams cannot
be given early nor can they be rescheduled. Students who miss a paper/pencil
exam for illness will sit an alternative exam on Monday, January 13th.
Final
PowerSchool Progress Update - Repeat Announcement
The final progress update of
the semester will take place on Friday, December 13th. Teachers will make every
effort to have regular assessments scored and posted by 4:00 pm that day.

Please note that first-semester report cards will be issued on Friday, January 24th. Please ignore any
