Restroom Pass Updates:

We believe students are most successful when they are present at school and in class.  In order to encourage time management skills, and have students in class as much as possible, we have created a new restroom system. Students will receive 5 restroom passes for the week to use during class. After these 5 passes are used, students will receive a demerit for restroom use. This only applies for leaving the classroom to use the restroom. Students are always able to use the restroom during lunch, culture block, and passing period. All restroom use is logged in our online system, HERO, where we track other positive and negative behaviors on campus. Please reach out to your students Grade Level Chair for more information on HERO, your students behaviors, or other campus systems.

 

Weekly Assessments:

Summative Assessments are in full swing, Aviator Families. See below for next week's classes that will be administering exams!

 

Why the PSAT/NMSQT Is Important?

Taking the PSAT/NMSQT is more than just good practice for the SAT, and the scores are more than just a number. With your child’s results, they can:

·       See where they are and set a target: You’ll get details on the exact skills and knowledge they need to focus on, while they have plenty of time to improve. If they’ve taken the PSAT 8/9 or PSAT 10, they’ll also see how much progress they’ve made between the tests.

·       Find out about their AP Potential: Students who take an AP course are better positioned to succeed in college.

·       Enter the National Merit Scholarship Program: Students who take the PSAT/NMSQT and meet other program entry requirements specified in the PSAT/NMSQT Student Guide will enter the National Merit^® Scholarship Program, an academic competition for recognition and scholarships conducted by National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC^®) Visit NMSC’s website at www.nationalmerit.org for more information.

Help pay for college: Taking the PSAT/NMSQT gives your child the chance to access over $300 million in other scholarship opportunities
