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.
Letters were given to students and mailed to all students on Friday who will need to attend summer school to be able to be promoted to the next grade level. These parents will also receive a follow up phone call this week to confirm attendance and arrange bus transportation. Please note summer school is IN PERSON. There will be no option for remote attendance.
Wednesday, Remote for All Students and Other Reminders
-EVERY Wednesday is a remote learning day for ALL students. All students should have assignments to complete every Wednesday for all courses.
-Wednesday’s also is a REQUIRED Course Recovery attending school day for students who are Full Time Remote and not passing 1 or more core class for the school year. This is from 8am – 3pm. Parents must provide transportation to and from school. You can have your remote student log-in to their Canvas account and see if they are passing Math, ELA, Science, or Social Studies for every grading period. Please contact the school if you have any questions.
WORK DEADLINES for Hybird Students (attend 4 days each week)
Now that hybrid students are attending school 4 days each week these students should be able to submit assignments daily. Most teachers will have daily assignments to complete or require assignments to be submitted on the last day students attend each week. Contact individual teachers for their procedures. Parents please have your student pull up all work assignments in their Canvas account before this Tuesday, March 30th to ensure all work has been submitted.
