Adjustments to the Final Exam Exemption Policy
Adjustments to the Final Exam Exemption Policy
This is a reminder that students may become eligible for Final Exam Exemptions during the Spring Semester. Students who earn an exemption are excused from attending on exam days, and the only way a student may earn an exemption is through the schoolwide exemption policy. Juniors and seniors will take the ACT on Tuesday, March 17, while freshmen and sophomores will take the PreACT on Wednesday, March 18. WorkKeys testing will be offered on April 1, and participating in WorkKeys testing is also a great way for students to work toward earning an exam exemption.

Congratulations to juniors Jeiry Moran and London Schexnydre for an incredible achievement! For the second year in a row, they have earned 1st Place at the National History Day Baton Rouge Regional Competition in the Senior Group Documentary category!

Tardy Reporting
Tardy Reporting
A tardy is recorded any time a student is not in class by its official start time (at the start of school and during regular class changes). Late arrivals to school by student drivers or carpool do count into a student's tardy record. Student tardies accumulate throughout the full semester and consequences begin after the 3rd tardy.
AM Carpool.pdfAM Carpool
AM Carpool
Carpool starts at 6:40! Parents are not allowed to drop off before this. Wait for Mr. Shoff to start releasing for Carpool. Also, parents are not allowed to go down the lane that is reserved for student parking as indicated by the green arrows. That lane is reserved for students so they can drive into the student parking lot to park. Also, going up Pickett to try to get into the parking lot is NOT allowed at any time.
PM Carpool.pdfPM Carpool
PM Carpool
At the end of the school day during carpool, we've noticed some parents parking on the grass along LEE Drive and having their children walk to their cars. This practice is not only against school policy but also poses significant safety risks. For the safety of all students and to ensure smooth traffic flow, please refrain from parking on the grass and use the designated carpool lanes. Your cooperation is crucial in keeping our school environment safe for everyone.
Check-in/Check Out Policy Reminders
Parents cannot email or call the office after dropping the student off late to school
Students will wait in TOR until a parent comes to sign them in.
Student drivers who arrive late may have a parent email the office. Student driver must have an approved parking contract on file.
Student drivers will have driving privileges suspended upon their 3rd late arrival in the semester.
