Good morning-

I hope you are all dug out and safe after the blizzard. 

Grades close Wednesday, February 2 at 4pm. We will continue to have a minimum grade of 50 for Term 2 for full year courses.  If you have any student who earns below a 50 please enter a 50 into the Term 2 column. If you have a student who did no work at all please communicate with the counselor and Dean. 
If you did not administer a midyear exam, leave the window blank.
If you have a pass/fail course that is a half year course, make sure to enter the P/F in the final grade column as well. 
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Course registration for the 2022-2023 school year begins today. Teachers have until February break to complete recommendations. Please have a conversation with your students about the classes you are recommending.
Attached are the:

Teacher Quick Start Guide for Recommendations

Good afternoon- Thanks to everyone who helped to make New Student Orientation a success last night. It was great to see so many students and staff in the building. I am looking forward to seeing you all on Monday. We start at 8AM in the auditorium. There will be some members of the Class of 2026 painting their parking spots on Monday afternoon. Please try to park in the faculty parking lot or in the back of the building if you usually park in the student section.  New staff, please join the staff  Google Classroom . All information sent to faculty/staff will be housed here. The  class code is a5ca6a4. The custodians have been working hard to make sure each classroom has the correct number of desks (minus study halls). There may be a few classrooms off a desk or two based on student moves at the end of this week. If anyone has furniture in their rooms that is not being used, please let me know. We are short some L-shaped desks, under-desk file cabinets, and bookcases....

Good afternoon- I hope you have been able to dig out from the storm. Tomorrow is sure to be a little chaotic, and I fully predict we will have students who don't understand the exam schedule changes and families who may keep their students home. We will need to be flexible! Stay warm! Here is the schedule for tomorrow:  G block exam: 10:30 am- 12 pm Lunch: 1st (12:05-12:35) - English, math, & science             2nd (12:40-1:10) - history, world language, unified arts, special education, ELL & wellness Students will need to be asked to remain in their class for first lunch and return to the class they were testing in for second lunch. We will do our best with this but are not going to stress about kids being elsewhere. We have no way of knowing how many G block students are staying for A block.  A block exam: 1:15 pm- 2:45 pm Along with the updated midyear exam schedule .  Grades for Term 2 will close on Wednesday, January 28, 2026, a...
