Distance learning schedule
Students have their same schedule, the times for each hour have
just changed by a few minutes. ABAs due at 3:30pm.
|
|
Distance learning flex schedule
FLEX day schedule: teachers might be requesting you during a specific class time on Wednesday because of the FLEX focused day. Students are required to attend if a teacher requests you. You will be marked absent if you do not attend. We strongly encourage you to meet with your teachers at these times and get support in your classes. If you want to attend a teacher’s FLEX time and haven’t been requested, you can also opt in to go. The teacher might be working on something particular during this time, so we would suggest sending them an email and asking them about it as well. No ABAs

Counseling Video Lesson for EHS Juniors
Edina High School Counselors released a short video lesson titled
presentation incorporates six strategies to use as a framework when
planning for potential post-secondary futures.
This video is part of a larger developmental post-secondary planning curriculum designed for students in grade 11 at EHS.

Junior Parent Post-Secondary
Exploration Conversation Presentation
|
|
Whether you were in attendance or not, the evening was recorded for students and families to view here (the presentation starts at around 9:00 minutes) at their leisure.
In addition, video break-out presentations are available for your viewing on possible topics of specific interest. These video topics include: NCAA eligibility, Post-Secondary Enrollment Options (PSEO), financial aid process and military academy admission and can be found on this playlist. We also have created a Junior Resource loaded with tools and strategies for post-secondary planning.
As always, we invited Juniors to continue to look at their Schoology and emails for upcoming counseling activities which are viewable on their Naviance account or by going to the Class of 2022 website.

Mid-year Reports for Colleges |
|
The class of 2021 is entering the second half of senior year and we wanted
to pass along a quick update. As semester one comes to an end, some colleges
may request a mid-year report. Mid-year reports refer to a student’s final first
semester grades of senior year on their transcript. After grades are posted from semester one, we will process these reports and send them to colleges.
We will be sending mid-year reports automatically to schools through Naviance. Students do not need to request them from their counselor. If a student
has a unique or extenuating situation that has happened since applying,
please encourage them to talk directly to their school counselor.
|
|
Many students choose to visit colleges (during a typical year, that is). This year will be different and many colleges are choosing to forgo in-person tours.
With college-exploration, there are a few options for students to still explore potential post-secondary fits!
We are continuing a robust schedule of college admission representative virtual visits. These meetings are designed to put students in direct contact with the admissions folks who know their schools best. Check out the link for a list of what colleges are
coming when - also find a tutorial on how to sign up for the visits!

Pay Fees in Infinite Campus |

Classroom materials and library books are essential to student learning. When materials are lost or damaged, students are asked to pay a replacement cost. To make things easier for families, those fees may be paid in Infinite Campus. If you receive an email telling you that your student has a fee or missing books/items, please login to the Parent Portal and use the tutorial below to see what fee has been assigned or to find out what book/item is missing. You can pay for the missing book/item or the fee in Infinite Campus. If you need help with your login information, please email parentportal@edinaschools.org. |
