HS students:  We will be starting a new HS homework policy starting this week.  Students will have 3 days to turn in homework assignments for any given class.  Any homework assignment not turned in before the 3 days will become a zero (no credit earned for that assignment).  Students who are absent fall under the make-up work policy where they have 2 days to get work made up.  Teachers can request that you stay after school with them or come to school early to get work completed.  Detention may be assigned to students who do not stay after or come early for a teacher.  Our ultimate goal is to improve on getting homework completed in a timely and adequate manner.  Talk to your teachers if you have any questions.

 

HS students:  Starting next week, any HS student who has all of their homework adequately completed will be able to opt out of attending 9th period Study Hall/Homeroom for certain designated days.  Students who do not have all homework for the week completed are required to attend their 9th period Study Hall/Homeroom.
