Academics
o
Mid-semester
grade reports went out last week prior to conferences.
o
13
students with two or more low grades in their classes (D or F). There were 4 more
students in this spot last year at this time. There are only 7 students
currently with a Failing grade, which is the same as a year ago.
o
I
sent home a letter to parents about the after school program and students with
low grades and missing assignments to take advantage of the program. The goal
is to get students to complete their work on time, which should improve their
grade.

It was a great day of work by the students and
staff. I would like to commend the staff on being so flexible and making it
