It's a School Night

Lexi is VERY excited about being back at school tomorrow!  VERY EXCITED!!!  I am equally looking forward to seeing all of you and hearing about your breaks, but I am definitely not excited about the early morning start time.  

A few quick reminders for you...

1. Tomorrow begins the 2nd semester.  Please log in and double check infinite campus to see where and when any of your new semester long classes will meet.

2.  If you are taking a CSCC CC+ class, don't forget that you have an extra week free those periods before your classes begin.

3.  If you are trying to make a schedule change, you will need to complete a schedule change request form.  This form does require a parent signature.  And, if you are dropping a year-long class it also requires your teacher's signature.  (You can download the form off the Counselor website or pick it up from the bookshelf in the front of the counseling center.)

4.  If you failed a class in the 1st semester I need to see you ASAP!  We need to discuss the plan for how you will make up that credit.

5.  Last, but more importantly, the new semester is a complete and total fresh start!  No matter how well or how poorly you did in a class during the first semester doesn't matter for this semester as you have a clean slate and you get to start fresh.  But that also means you need to hit the ground running.  You already know how your year-long classes work and so you know what to expect.  If you need to make changes, spend a few minutes thinking about what you realistically can do to get a stronger start to the semester.

Your new year on the calendar and the new semester align so that you can make the most of your education.  You have so many gifts to share with our school and community, but hopefully you will also take just as much away with you as a result of your time at WKHS.  Please make the most of every day and think about what you want that to be like for you as you look ahead at the upcoming semester.
