IMPORTANT MEMO Regarding Exams/Schedule
Date: May 22, 2017
To:
MPHS student, parents, and faculty
From:
Dr. Jim Finch, Principal
RE:
Underclass exams
The end of the school year is Friday May 26, 2017. Underclass exams will begin Wednesday May 24, 2017 and conclude on Friday May 26, 2017. Please visit the website to view our exam schedule.
Students who exempt all the exams on a certain day do not have to report to school. Students who exempt 1 or 2 exams per day need only to report during the time of the exam. Signed exemption forms have been returned to the office. Therefore, you should be aware of your child's exemption status.
Students cannot exempt their English or math classes this semester. Please remember that in order to preserve the testing environment, there will be no checkouts during or between the exam periods. Unexcused absences or late arrivals will result in a zero for the exam.
Thursday May 25 and Friday May 26 will be early release days with the day ending at 12:50pm. Students will be released at this time. Please arrange for transportation for your child to leave at this time. Buses will continue to run at 3pm for students unable to leave at 12:50pm. Students are not able to leave campus and return to ride the bus home.
As always, thank you for allowing us at Mary Persons to be such an important part of your child's education. Have a safe and happy summer!

2nd Year Energy Pathway Students Visit ECTC
Second year Energy Pathway students recently visited the Electric Co-operative Traning Center (ECTC) in Smarr. Students got a chance to learn as if they were already energy & power employees and receive training from professionals who work in the field. This ECTC offers a unique facility that can provide real world, hands-on training both in the classroom and out in the full-scale substation. Thanks to Georgia Transmission and all of their employees who worked with our Energy students.

meaning that it is in operation around the clock.
Mr. Meacham and his students are pictured in front of some of
the massive coal handling equipment onsite.
