Report Cards go Home Today

Just a reminder that students will receive their 3rd Quarter Report Cards in Homeroom today.  Any parent or guardian who would like to come by and pick up a copy of their child's report card may do so after Wednesday of this week.  Just call your assigned guidance counselor beforehand.  As you are reviewing the grades on the report cards, please also pay close attention to the attendance.  Any student who is absent from a class for more than 8 days during the semester, will not get credit for that class.  Credit recovery is available but students must see their guidance counselor for participation.  I encourage you to meet with your child's teacher for course specific questions.  As always, I am available if you have any other concerns.  Thanks for all you do to make our school great.  Have an Incredible Week and Go Hornets!!
