Winter Break is No Break!
Do you have an online class? Do you need to get ahead or catch up? Well...all online classes are accessible during winter break!
The end of the semester, January 23rd.
Classes are open over winter break (December 20-January 4). This is a great time to get caught up on work.
If classes are not done by January 23rd, a few things may happen: You will receive an F if your Relative grade is not close to 60%. You may receive an Incomplete or NG if you are within 15% of passing. You will still be expected to finish those classes to stay on track for graduation.
Turn in any teacher graded assignments no later than January 16th to ensure they are graded before the semester deadline. If you need help uploading these, please let me know.
I hope you all have a good holiday break and it gives time for fun, family, and getting caught up with work for those who need it.
Contact Zach Wolff if you have any questions.
Thanks

HALLOWEEN Guidelines -
Attention Parents/Guardians,
Halloween is coming up on Friday! We want to make sure our students and teachers are safe and following the ROCK expectations.
Our focus is on academics and if a student’s costume is a distraction then the student will be asked to remove the costume for the day. Below are some guidelines for your student to adhere to:
Important:
R – RESPOSIBLE: Minds On – Students are at school to focus on their academics.
O – ORGANIZED: FREE HANDS – Please make sure that your hands are free so they can work during the school day.
C – Cooperative: SHOES – Please make sure that you have school appropriate shoes for safety.
K – KIND: FOOD – Please do not send candy or food with your student to share unless already assigned by classroom teacher.
Costumes may be worn to school but if they are a distraction to the classroom and students they may be asked to change clothing.
Costumes must be worn over clothing.
Faces must be recognizable. Also, there is no make-up/face paint that would make it difficult to recognize someone.
All costumes should still meet dress code. Student attire should not be distracting to the learning process.
No Blood or guts.
No weapons, real or replicas.
If you have questions, then please communicate with the office.
Thank you.
