Mid-Terms Finished

This is the start of the sixth week of the school year.  We are now over 1/8th (or 12.5%) of the way through the 2012-13 school year.  It all moved too quickly. 

Talked to your student about what to expect this week.  Is your home going to receive a note saying your daughter/son is in academic danger OR you not going to get a note this week?  The prediction should be interesting.  Your son/daughter know rather well if there is a problem in the class or not.  If you are looking at the Parent Portal you probably have a good idea as well.

Academic success is important.  We want all our students to be college and career ready which means they need to make an effort.  Schools to not open the brain and pour stuff in.  We need students in class on a regular basis.  We need them prepared and willing to learn.  We do not need to struggle with behavior issues.  We want students to make reasonable and appropriate use of their time.

If you have questions please email your daughter/son's teacher now.  Have that conversation with your son/daughter.  We want your child to succeed.  Together we can make good things happen.
