Academic Eligibility Checks will take place every 2 weeks for the 2024-2025 school year. These grade checks take place to promote academic success and to verify extracurricular eligibility. The next grade check will be on May 21. Students who are not passing ALL academic classes (both quarterly and cumulatively) or are not on pace in their online classes at the time of this grade check will be declared ineligible until the student can prove they are current in their progress and passing all courses. Parents will be notified when students are failing one or more courses or are behind pace. Quarterly failures will automatically result in 2 weeks of ineligibility. Semester failures will automatically result in 4 weeks of ineligibility. Fall semester ineligibility carries over to the spring semester. Spring semester ineligibility carries over to the fall semester. For more details on Eligibility Checks, see page 35-36 in the 2024-25 Student Handbook.
Seniors and Sophomores who are Honor Society members should report to the HAC at 12:45 to practice for the program tonight.
