Hello Students and Parents,
I have sent letters home
to parents of students failing course. The letter includes your child
personal overall grade and some reminders of resources and policies that
can help your child's grade improve. There is still plenty of time to
get grades up and address any concerns for poor grades and/or
behavior. Students are to get letters signed by parent and return to me
by Wednesday October 15, 2014.
