End of the Year
News for High School (Grades 9-11)
There have been many
questions centered around the end of the school year….What is the last day for
students? When are semester exams? Will
the students on the Florida trip have to make things up? I hope this answers many of those questions
for you.
The last day for students is
Monday, June 3rd.
Semester Exams will be taken by ALL
students on Thursday, May 23rd and Friday, May 24th. We will run those
two days on a semester test schedule. Semester tests will be completed
before students leave on the Florida trip.
The week of May 28-31 will serve as
an enrichment week. (4 day week due to Memorial Day). June 3rd will
be the last day for students. Teachers will use this as a day for students to
turn enrichment work in, present projects, etc. These 5 days are MANDATORY FOR
ALL STUDENTS!
Florida students and others students
with previously scheduled vacations that have already been cleared through the
office will receive the work they will be required to complete for the
enrichment week on Tuesday, May 21st. Some teachers may give it earlier if they
choose to do so.

Bear Facts
A few helpful “facts” about the high school and
upcoming events……
January 2013
Doors: The Danville Community School District will
begin locking all exterior doors during the school day on Monday, January 21,
2013. Detailed information about the new
procedures to enter the building during the school day will be outlined on the
district website: www.danvillecsd.org. With all new procedures comes the potential
for frustration and inconvenience.
Thanks for your patience and support!
Report Cards: Report cards will be sent home with students
mid-week. We initially handed out report
cards this past Friday, but realized there were mistakes in the calculation of
semester grades for some teachers. A message
update will be sent out when corrected report cards are in the hands of
students.
High School Hoops Week: We
will be celebrating Hoops Week in the high school this upcoming week, January
21st-25th! Dress
up days are as follows:
Monday: Favorite Sports Team
Tuesday: Pajama Day
Wednesday: Wacky Hair
Thursday: Mis-Match Day
(Boy’s and Girl’s basketball at home against Cardinal. Wear Camo to the game!)
Friday: Red T-shirts to support Austin Haines (Boy’s
basketball at home against Maharishi. Wear Austin t-shirts to the game!)
Spring Conferences: The Jr./Sr.
High Staff will NOT hold conferences this spring. The attendance at these conferences has been
low over the past several years. What
does this mean for students and parents?
1.
All Jr./Sr. High
Students will have school on Friday, March 1st. Normally, we exchange a school day in order
to meet with parents during evening conferences. This “flex day” is always held on the Friday
of conference week. Since we won’t be
meeting with parents, this “flex day” is not needed. (Note: This is different from the elementary
school!)
2.
Teachers are
always available to meet with parents.
Please email or call the teacher to discuss your student’s progress or to
set up a meeting.
Let's make second semester the best it can be!
