Driver's License Denial
Article Subheading

The  Teenage and Adult Driver Responsibility Act requires that a driver's license shall not be issued or shall be revoked for a period of one year if a student is 15-18 years old and has:

  1. Dropped out of school and remained out of school for ten consecutive days;
  2. Accumulated ten or more unexcused absences during the current academic year;
  3. Accumulated ten or more unexcused absences during the previous academic year; or
  4. Has been found guilty by a disciplinary tribunal of committing one or more of the offenses listed as violations of the Teenage and Adult Driver Responsibility Act (See Code of Conduct for list).
  As the school and as parents, we both want our children to be ready for graduation and a career.  On time, daily attendance is an early marker to those successes.  Thank you for your assistance in getting your child to school every day.  
 
GROWL
First GROWL August 22
Next week is our first GROWL Wednesday of the school year. Please be reminded that 9th grade students will be required to report to school at the regular time, 8:20 am. Students will report to their advisement classroom for attendance. After attendance, 9th grade students will follow their schedule (to be distributed Tuesday, August 21) to either CLAWS Academy or Study Hall/Intramural Sport (based on the student's request). During our first CLAWS Academy, students will attend the annual Club Fair.

10th, 11th, and 12th grade students have the option of arriving at school at 10:40 am on GROWL days.  10th - 12th grade students who arrive earlier than 10:40 am will be assigned to an area to work independently, work on group projects, or study with classmates. Periods 1 - 7 (please see schedule below) will begin at 10:50 am for all students.
Parents dropping students off at carpool should enter through the Bethany Bend entrance. If you drop your student off before 10:30 am, you can use the access road that runs parallel to Cogburn Road to drop off students in front of the cafeteria doors (facing Kings Ridge). Beginning at 10:30 am, students can be dropped off at the front of the school and students will enter the front doors. Driving students may enter through the back gate on Highway 9 to access the student parking lot. Note that the access road next to the gym will be closed for safety reasons.

Buses for all students will run on a regular schedule. 10th, 11th, and 12th grade students who take the bus to school will be required to remain on campus once they get off the bus and stay in one of the several supervised areas until 1st period begins.

Students who have Wednesday Dual Enrollment classes will meet at their regular time.
