Weekly Update 5-23-2022
AWARDS DAY CEREMONY: Our Awards Day Ceremonies will take place on June 9. 8th Grade 8:45; 7th 10:30, 6th 12:30. Students getting an award will receive a letter the week prior so that you are aware. It will be in person and you are welcomed to join us. All students will be encouraged to dress up. Families are encouraged to socially distance while enjoying the awards ceremony.
TEST DAYS: We will complete the first round of EOG testing May 31-June 10. Students will not be allowed to check out until after testing is completed for that day. This usually occurs after twelve. Regardless as to whether your child is testing or not, no check outs will be done prior to the end of testing for the building. Please plan accordingly. Cell phones are also not allowed into the testing sessions. Please make sure that students are aware. Students will need to bring their working Chromebook, charger, and earphones/earbuds to school on EOG Test Days. Chromebooks should be fully charged.
RETESTING/REMEDIATION: Students who do not pass their EOGs have the amazing opportunity to take the test again - retest. Students will be able to attend remediation and then retest on June 14 and June 15. We want them (if they are eligible) to retest because most students who take it a second time pass with a 3, 4, or 5; their test scores impact placement; their scores impact courses for next year; and overall it has a huge impact on our school performance. Students will take home a letter Monday that we need you to fill out if you are interested or not and they should turn it back in the following day. Transportation, Breakfast, and Lunch are provided.
