PR1
We want to remind you that the Mid-Semester Progress Report (PR1) is coming up on Friday, October 16. Please be aware that any student who receives a grade below 70 in any required course (Math, Science, Humanities, English, and World Language) by the PR1 will be considered at risk of failing. These students will be assigned to a mandatory study hall during free periods and will not be eligible to participate in sports and extracurricular activities for a period of fifteen school days. This means no playing, practicing, or traveling with the team, or participating in any extended school activity.
This is a great time to check in on your progress! We encourage you to use the time leading up to PR1 to complete any missing assignments or assessments. Don’t hesitate to reach out to your teachers if you need help
Letter Jackets
Thursday, Oct. 8th, a representative will be on campus during both US lunch periods for you to try on letter jackets for sizing, answer questions and place orders. Please know any US student who has earned a letter in athletics or fine arts is welcome to place an order.
Mrs Rorey will have a few flyers at her desk that include a QR code to place an order.
