2024 Summer Reading Link

Student schedules for the 2024-2025 school year were posted in Aspen this past Friday, May 31st and will be open through Thursday, June 13th to allow students the opportunity to review their courses and make any necessary adjustments with their Guidance Counselors in preparation for the upcoming academic year. As this is a very busy time of the year, we appreciate your patience in allowing us the grace we need to get through the requests in a comprehensive manner. Rest assured, we are committed to getting through this process with all students before we leave for the summer.

To review student schedules, please login to your Aspen account and view them under published reports. *Please note that new teachers are not yet reflected in students’ schedules and will not be until after the formal Aspen rollover in late July. Ms. Rose is currently listed in any classes with new teachers as a placeholder. Stay tuned for updated new staffing information to come over the summer!👍

Time to complete your Graduation Survey! The Guidance office needs some information from you regarding your future plans. Completion of the survey is a requirement in order to receive your cap and gown. Log into Naviance and complete the Graduation Survey to provide your future plans for after graduation (work, college, military, gap year, etc.). For those attending college, we also need to know your final choice so that we can send them your final transcript in late June. When you log into Naviance, the survey is listed on your home page as an "Important Task or To-Do". Alternatively, you can access it by clicking on "About Me" > "Surveys from my School".
