Secondary students may view their 2020-2021 grades (excluding state and/or district final exam scores) in Home Access Center (HAC) from June 18 - June 30, 2021, however secondary report cards will not be finalized until after district finals and state End-of-Course (EOC) exam results are received and processed.
Finalized 2020-2021 report cards will be printed and distributed during the first week of school (August 2021). Please remember that state and district final exam scores will only be included if the score improves a student’s letter grade.

Nease Theatre Arts had an amazing end of year induction ceremony and banquet where next year’s International Thespian Society officers were named and 29 new students were inducted into our ITS troupe 4641 (six of those students will be going to Tocoi Creek High School to start a new ITS troupe in the fall). We also celebrated the graduating seniors and awarded their achievements for all their work here at Nease. It was an excellent culmination to a challenging (yet very productive and rewarding year). The best is yet to come!

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY NEWS!
Advisers: Carolyn Milian, School Librarian Media Specialist & Mrs. Robbins, Math teacher
SOPHOMORE & JUNIOR STUDENTS & PARENTS!
Is your student interested in being invited to join National Honor Society next school year? Well, here are some important details to keep in mind, so your child can start working on his/her “resume”. These are the requirements for students to be considered as candidates for the Nease chapter of National Honor Society:
Eligibility for National Honor Society:
o NHS is open only to Juniors and Seniors
o 3.80 SHARP WEIGHTED GPA (no rounding)
o Juniors – minimum of 40 documented service hours documented by end of August of Junior year. Seniors – minimum of 50 documented hours by end of August
o Enrolled in at least 2 Honors, AP, or DE courses (or a combo of any of these) for the school year 2021-22.
Eligible Juniors and Seniors who have the required GPA at the start of the school year, will receive an invitation for an “Informational Meeting” in September to discuss the requirements and expectations of all members in National Honor Society. At that point they will receive a “Selection/Resume” packet that must be completed and submitted by deadline date.
Eligibility does not guarantee admission. Other factors that will determine candidacy are leadership, school involvement in clubs, events, and activities, outside leadership and club involvement (ie: Scouts, church, community groups, work, etc.). The Faculty Council (8 anonymous faculty members) review all the resumes and make the final decisions regarding invitation to become a member or does not meet needed requirements. Juniors that did not meet requirements have the opportunity to become eligible at the start of Senior year. All confirmed candidates will be inducted into the club in a ceremony that will take place sometime in October. Confirmation letters will be sent out during the last week of September.
