Please let us know if we can be of assistance to you as we are now in the holiday
season. We are here to help.
Below are a few NEW notes and reminders for you. Have a great week!

Early Final Exams
Families:
As a reminder we do not give early
finals. If any student will be missing a final
(cruises, visiting family, other vacation trips, etc.), they will need to take the final after they return. It will be the
student’s responsibility to arrange a time with teachers after the break to take the
final.

students teacher (math, science, social studies, or English) if your student has an F and
you'd like them to attend this intervention.
Does your student need a ride to school OR is your student looking to help students
in need of a ride? Chief Carpooling!
If your student needs a ride to and/or from school on certain days and times or every day, sign up to be a rider and you will be matched with a student who can help!

Families:
The reasons we approve early finals are as follows:
- A student / family
member experiences a medical emergency.
- There is a death in the
family.
- A student is moving.
- A member of the student’s immediate family is returning from military service or being deployed during the finals days.
If there are any questions about the reason for the
student’s absence, feel free to tell the student to come and speak with
me.
Thank you,
Jim Harvey, Ed.S.
