Week of August 24, 2020
Welcome to our first full week of Distance Learning! We are excited to see in you in class on Tuesday morning through ZOOM! Please follow the Tuesday Bell Schedule and log in to your zoom links posted in Schoology. Also, don't forget to log in live on Tuesday night at 8pm for our first Assembly of the year!
IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR ALL STUDENTS REGARDING ZOOM:
Every student needs to be aware that when students log in to a zoom class they will be sent to a waiting room before the teacher admits them to the class. Students need to re-name themselves in zoom to match their name that would show up on the official school roster. YOU WILL NOT BE ADMITTED TO THE ZOOM CLASS IF YOUR ZOOM NAME DOES NOT MATCH YOUR NAME ON THE CLASS ROSTER. This is meant to ensure that our zoom classrooms are attended solely by the people that are meant to be there. Thank you!
Course Schedule Change Requests
If you would like to request adding or dropping a course, please have a parent use the link below. Schedule change requests must be filled out and turned in by Friday, September 4 at 3pm. We will only accept request changes via the Google link below. Please do not email or call the office to request a change. Mrs. Fletcher will notify you via email by September 7th if your schedule request was denied otherwise it was accommodated and you may view the new course schedule in Pathways. In order to make schedules work for all students, we are not able to accommodate specific teacher or period requests. Please note that most classes are full and requested course schedule changes will be extremely limited.
Thank you for your understanding!
