Principal's Weekly Message
Good evening Middle Creek High School families,
It was another wonderful (& busy!) week at The Creek! I hope all our families have some fun and relaxation on the agenda for this weekend, as we only have 2 more weeks until exams, and they will be busy too!
Below are some reminders & information for next week.
Information & Reminders:
Final Exam Information:
Final exams for second semester classes will be held on-campus the week of June 5th-9th. Students will be taking either teacher-made exams or a state-mandated exam (CTE or EOC courses). Reminder, that final exam participation is required unless you have a 12th grader that has earned exemption status for a particular course. Final exams will count for 20% of the final course grade.
The schedule for final exams is provided below and will be reviewed with students in their homeroom in the coming weeks. Each day students will have one exam, time for lunch, and then have scheduled time to review for an upcoming exam or complete other work. Bus transportation will run as normal.
Most students will not report to campus on Friday, unless they have to make-up an exam missed earlier in the week.
Schedule- Spring 2023 Exam Schedule
If a student would like to be dismissed and picked up prior to the study hall, parents may approve that option. Below is the permission form that must completed and signed in order for a student to be dismissed after their exam period (12:00ish). Students will need to turn this permission form in to their teacher on the day of each exam. Students who are planning to take advantage of early dismissal must leave campus at the end of the exam period and may not come back to campus unless they have an athletic practice or extracurricular activity.
Seniors:
Senior Final Mustang Moments - We will be hosting a “Cookies and Cokes in the Commons” for all Seniors at the last Mustang Moments for the Year. This will be a special time to socialize and celebrate together. If you are able to support this event by donating gift cards or soda - please sign up here! THANK YOU!
Chromebook Return - Graduating Seniors need to return their WCPSS chromebook and charger to the media center prior to the last day of school. Once they are done using it, they can drop off their chromebook and charger in the Media Center to Ms. Sumner or Ms. Dextre. Students will also be able to drop off their chromebook and charger after the Senior Picnic or after either Graduation Rehearsal.
