Cell Phones
We held our second Cell Phone Free Friday this past week. Again we were impressed by the grace with which our students navigated these pilot days. Our hope is to create a school day free from SnapChat & TikTok notifications, free from unwanted distractions, and safe in knowing that photos and videos are not being taken.
Cell Phone Free Friday expectations:
All students must have their phone away in their backpack or in their car for the entire day.
Upon entry to the building all phones must be away.
Any student seen with a cell phone will risk having it confiscated for pickup in the main office at the end of the day.
June 6: Students are expected to be cell phone free in the their morning classes and are permitted to use their cell phones from 11:45 on.
NHS Extra Help Session for Finals
Students in the National Honor Society will be hosting extra help sessions beginning this week. The sessions take place in the library after school. We encourage freshman and sophomores in particular to take advantage of these extra help sessions!
Tuesday 6/3: Biology, Chemistry, English
Wednesday 6/4: World Language (Spanish, French, Latin)
Thursday 6/5: Math, World Studies
Wednesday, 6/11: all subjects
Final Exams and End-of-Year Planning
We are in the home stretch, and students should continue reviewing exam schedules and preparing for final assessments. We have released our finals schedule after taking feedback from our new midterm schedule this year. Please print this out and post in a prominent place in your home. FINALS SCHEDULE
We have adjusted our review days (June 6 & 11) to include a half day of classes followed by what we call FLEX time, where students can schedule themselves into extra help with their teachers in the specific classes they need more targeted help in.
Buses will run at 11:45am during the review days and final exam days.
Students may also take the bus home at 2:30 on the review days or finals days as the middle school buses continue to run.
Please be aware that the last couple of days of school the middle school has early dismissals.
Limited lunch options will be served on the review days. Lunch is not served on final exam days.
We encourage students to stay in school for Flex Time and get extra help from their teachers.
