We had a short, yet productive week! Students are working on prepping for final projects, discussions, and exams. Our middle school students have been working furiously in their science classes to finish their mini-golf courses. They look like so much fun! It is wonderful to see the creativity and enthusiasm they have had for this project.
Next week is the last week of the term. We wrap up our term one grade books and begin to work on the report card process. Your student's grades will be finalized by the 26th of November and should be accessible in StudentVUE and ParentVUE at that time. We are all still getting used to the new grade book and appreciate your patience as we work through any challenges during our first end-of-term experience with the new system.
It is truly incredible that we are at this point in the fall term. I want to thank all of the staff who have worked tirelessly to support our students, keep them safe, and get them back in the groove of learning full time and in person.
Enjoy the extended weekend.
