School Reminders

I wanted to make sure that all of you were aware that the last date to drop a 1st semester course without having it appear on your transcript is this Wednesday, September 30th. That is also the last date to submit a request to have a 1st semester class graded on a pass/ fail scale instead of the traditional grading system. Please make sure that your requests for these options are turned into the counseling center before the school day ends on Wednesday!

Wednesday is also a homeroom day so we will be on slightly different bell schedule.  It is an 8-minute homeroom so check your planbook for the exact schedule, but you only lose 1 minute from each class.  Information about the upcoming PSAT will be distributed during homeroom, but as a heads up - you can begin registering for the PSAT starting on Wednesday in the Counseling Center.  (More info will be coming soon on my blog about the PSAT.)

Also, Picture Retakes will take place on Thursday, October 1st.  So, for those of you who did not like how your pictures turned out from schedule pick up day or anyone who didn't attend schedule pick up day and therefore have not had your picture taken yet, please make sure to stop by during your lunch period and have your picture taken.

And, last but certainly not least, if you are applying to college with a November 1st deadline, you need to make sure that your teacher(s) and I have your recommendation information sheets no later than Thursday, October 1st so that we have 30 days to write and submit your recommendation letter before the deadline.
