Tomorrow begins 2nd semester! This is a great opportunity to continue the progress students have made so far, or use it as a clean slate! Both grades and behavior points reset. Keep in mind that student assignments/assessments the first few weeks of school can significantly impact eligibility for extra curricular activities. We can’t wait to see you back at school tomorrow!
