Summer School – June 1st – July 13th – Information sent home this week
The NC General Assembly recently passed House Bill 82 and Governor Cooper signed it into law. This legislation provides funding for a summer school opportunity for students who do not meet the promotion standards (passes 3 out of 4 core classes for the school year). If your child is currently not meeting promotion standards and you would like them to have the opportunity to attend to work towards possible promotion please make sure to mark your calendar for these dates. We currently have some students in a course recovery class during exploratory. Some of these student may have the opportunity to now pass depending on how many assignments they have successfully completed.
MAP Testing for REMOTE students this week
We will finish up our MAP testing this week. Hybrid students who were unable to complete their tests last week will be able to finish their tests during their exploratory time.
We also can now accommodate all Remote students who have not yet tested on Monday and Tuesday. Ms. Ellis also has some students testing on Wednesday. Remote students who have not tested please report to the front office by 8:30 each day to be instructed on which room will be testing. Monday's test will be ELA and Tuesday's test will be Math. If any Remote students can not come either of these days please call our Front Desk Monday to reschedule.
